Eshaan Verma, R. K. Mehrotra . Comparison of Companding based PAPR Techniques for OFDM Systems. International Journal of Computer Applications. 75, 4 ( August 2013), 40-42. DOI=10.5120/13103-0405
3GPP LTE has utilized the OFDMA for the downlink which provides spectrum flexibility, inherent resistance to Inter symbol Interference (ISI) and many more. However 3GPP LTE systems suffer from a very common problem known as Peak to Average Power ratio. The present paper tried to discuss the companding based techniques for single user OFDMA systems. We have tried our simulations for L=1-4 oversampling rate and 256 FFT matrix and 128 random data bits to decrease the PAPR by overlooking on the complementary cumulative distribution function. It is observed in the simulation that Peak to Average Power ratio reduces to the tune of 6-7db from the original unmodified system.
