METHOD OF REDUCING PAPR IN MULTIPLE ANTENNA OFDM COMMUNICATION SYSTEM AND MULTIPLE ANTENNA OFDM COMMUNICATION SYSTEM USING THE METHOD

摘要

Provided is a method of reducing a peak-to-average-power ratio in a multiple antenna orthogonal frequency division multiplexing communication system. The method includes: reducing a peak-to-average-power ratio of input serial data sequences; space-time coding the input serial data sequences with the reduced peak-to-average-power ratio to generate N symbols to be transmitted via N antennas; receiving the serial data sequences of the N symbols to transform the serial data sequences into N parallel data sequences; allocating each of the N parallel data sequences to Ns sub-carriers and performing Inverse Fast Fourier Transform on the N parallel data sequences; transforming the N parallel data sequences into N serial data symbols; and replicating a portion of the serial data symbols to generate cyclic prefixes and interleaving the cyclic prefixes into starting portions of the serial data symbols to cyclically expand the N symbols.
