Abstract
This paper introduces a novel blind partial transmission sequence (PTS) scheme to lower the peak-to-average-power ratio (PAPR) of orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) systems. Unlike existing PTS schemes in which the first sub-block (SB) is preserved as a phase reference for other SBs, we propose to add an optimized canceling signal (CS) to the first SB to further reduce the PAPR. The CS is designed such that they can be reconstructed by the receiver, and subtracted from the received signals before demodulation without requiring side information (SI). Since errors in reproducing the CS at the receiver can degrade the error performance, we design a novel CS protection mechanism specifically to protect the reconstruction of the CS. The proposed method is shown to significantly reduce the PAPR and symbol error rate (SER) without sacrificing the data rate due to using SI as many other existing PTS schemes.
