(OFDM) is an efficient method of data transmission for high speed
communication systems. However, the main drawback of OFDM
systems is that, it suffers from the problem of high Peak-to-Average
Power Ratio (PAPR) which causes inefficient use of the High Power
Amplifier and could limit transmission efficiency. OFDM consist of
large number of independent subcarriers, as a result of which the
amplitude of such a signal can have high peak values. In this paper,
we propose an effective reduction scheme that combines DCT and
SLM techniques. The scheme is composed of the DCT followed by
the SLM using the Riemann matrix to obtain phase sequences for the
SLM technique. The simulation results show PAPR can be greatly
reduced by applying the proposed scheme. In comparison with
OFDM, while OFDM had high values of PAPR –about 10.4dB our
proposed method achieved about 4.7dB reduction of the PAPR with
low complexities computation. This approach also avoids
randomness in phase sequence selection, which makes it simpler to
decode at the receiver. As an added benefit, the matrices can be
generated at the receiver end to obtain the data signal and hence it is
not required to transmit side information (SI).
