摘要：In wireless OFDM systems, a major cause for signal degradation during transmission is high Peak to Average Power Ratio (PAPR). Selected mapping (SLM) is one efficient technique which reduces the peaks of a signal considerably. One drawback associated with this technique is its computational complexity. The computational complexity is directly related to the complexity of the IFFT block and increases as the number of sub-carriers increases. In this paper, an effort is done to reduce the computational complexity as well as to improve the PAPR performance of the conventional SLM technique. The proposed technique called Partial Selected Mapping in which the IFFT block is divided into smaller blocks and each block is used as a separate SLM block. Partial outputs of all sub-blocks are concatenated to form the final sequence. Simulation results show that the overall computational complexity of the proposed technique is lower than that of the conventional SLM technique with better PAPR performance. A reduction of around 3dB in PAPR performance at CCDF of 10-3 is achieved.
