Performance Analysis of Peak-to-Average Power Ratio (PAPR) Reduction Techniques in an OFDM System

Abstract

Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) has been currently under intense research for wireless transmission due to its robustness against multipath fading. However, it has some limitations such as the Peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR), which restricts its use. It reduces the efficiency of the system. The aim of this paper is to analyze the various PAPR reduction techniques.
