Precoding and Transmitter-Side Processing Techniques for Multiuser MIMO OFDM Systems with Special Emphasis on the PAPR Problem

Edited by: Gerhard Wunder, Robert Fischer, Simon Litsyn and J.S. No

  1. Single-carrier space frequency block coding (SC-SFBC) is an innovative mapping scheme suitable for implementing transmit diversity in single-carrier frequency division multiple access (SC-FDMA) systems. The ma...

  2. A peak to average power ratio (PAPR) reduction method is proposed that exploits the precoding or beamforming mode in WiMAX. The method is applicable to any OFDM/A systems that implements beamforming using dedi...

  3. A common figure of merit in multi-carrier systems is the error vector magnitude (EVM). A method for EVM computation of a multi-carrier signal without any underlying model (e.g., the Gaussianity assumption) was...

  4. The design of predistortion techniques for broadband multiple input multiple output-OFDM (MIMO-OFDM) systems raises several implementation challenges. First, the large bandwidth of the OFDM signal requires the...

  5. The application of OFDM within a multi-user downlink scenario is considered. Thereby, two problems occur. First, due to OFDM, the transmit signal exhibits a large peak-to-average power ratio (PAR). Second, the...

  6. The combination of multicarrier code-division multiple access (MC-CDMA) with multiple-input multiple-output technology is attractive for broadband wireless communications. However, the large values of the peak...

  7. We address the peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) of transmission signals in OFDM and consider the performance of tone reservation for reduction of the PAPR. Tone reservation is unique among methods for reduci...

  8. By means of DFT-precoding, the PAPR of OFDM waveforms can be reduced. DFT-precoding has been proposed for uplink transmission in various future wireless communication systems. In this work, we consider DFT-pre...
