Abstract
A new signal scrambling technique is proposed to minimize the peak to average power ratio (PAPR) of multi carrier code division multiple access (MC-CDMA) signal using novel detected peak samples combining technique. This new approach minimizes PAPR by combing the MC-CDMA symbol with a number of copies of the detected peak sample which belong to the same MC-CDMA symbol. The analytical and simulation results show that by the right selection of the number of peak samples; the PAPR for 64 subcarrier system reduces by 4.9 dB at the complementary cumulative distribution function = 10−3. The PAPR can be further reduced by increasing the number of peak samples but it could compromise the data speed. The implementation of this technique is very simple when compared to the existing techniques like selective mapping, partial transmit sequence and tone reservation as it requires lesser number of Inverse Fast Fourier Transform/Fast Fourier Transform blocks, no side information and low processing delay.
