摘要：One of the severe drawbacks of orthogonal fre-quency division multiplexing (OFDM) is high Peak-to-Average Power Ratio (PAPR) of transmitted OFDM signals. During modulation the sub-carriers are added together with same phase which increases the value of PAPR, leading to more interference and limits power efficiency of High Power Amplifier (HPA), it’s requires power amplifier’s (PAs) with large linear oper-ating ranges but such PAs are difficult to design and costly to manufacture. Therefore, to reduce PAPR various methods have been proposed. As a promising scheme, partial transmit sequences (PTS) provides an effective solution for PAPR reduction of OFDM signals. In this paper, we propose a PAPR reduction method for an OFDM system with variation of phases based on PTS schemes and Solid State Power Amplifiers (SSPA) of Saleh model in conjunction with digital predistortion (DPD), in order to improve the performance in terms of PAPR, the HPA linearity and for the sake of mitigating the in-band distortion and the spectrum regrowth. The simulation results show that the proposed algorithm can not only reduces the PAPR significantly, but also improves the out-of-band radiation and decreases the computational complexity.
