Abstract

See full text

The present inventions provide methods and systems for reducing the peak to average power ratio of a multi-carrier signal. Reducing the peak to average power ratio of a signal ensures that amplifiers and transmitters are not saturated, causing loss of data. Further, reducing peak to average power ratios reduces the consumption of power during transmission. Peak to average power ratios are reduced by applying a peak reduction signal component to one or more of the plurality of information signals that make up the multi-carrier signal. In one embodiment the peak reduction signal is a basis function of the communication system. The information signal is mapped to duplicate constellation points, which may be easily decoded by a receiver by performing a modulo operation. Negation of the peaks may be performed iteratively to remove any peaks produced during prior peak reduction operations.
