A transmitter for transmitting data symbols using an orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) scheme, the transmitter comprising: a modulator for generating a plurality of mutually orthogonal sub-carriers, each of the plurality of sub-carriers being modulated with a stream of data symbols to be transmitted; an amplifier for amplifying a signal containing the plurality of modulated sub-carriers for transmission of the signal; and a symbol processor for processing the data symbols of the plurality of sub-carriers, the symbol processor being configured to compute a plurality of EVM values for each data symbol to be transmitted, each of the plurality of EVM values being computed based on a different one of a plurality of candidate back-off values for the amplifier, and to select one of the plurality of candidate back-off values to apply to the transmitter for the data symbol based on the computed EVM values |
