Adaptive DFT-s-OFDM employed novel multi layered scheme for reduction of PAPR for mMTC node in 5G (NR)

In 5G New Radio, The DFT-s-OFDM is a promising multiplexing technique for enhancing the average power of subcarriers to reduce the overall peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR). The peak of subcarrier is too high then the impact of DFT-s-OFDM is quite inferior. An Adaptive DFT-s-OFDM employed multilayered novel mechanism has been proposed in this research article to reduce the PAPR. The extent of sub-band is varied in accordance with predefined threshold value to enhance average power, meanwhile clipping is applied to shape the peak value of subcarrier. The clipping technique reduced the subcarrier's peak power. The proposed approach has the greater impact in order to enhance the efficiency of non-linear Power Amplifier (PA). The PAPR is suppressed by the multilayered strategy in two ways. The first is the numerator element, which is the reduction of peak power by clipping operation, and the second is the denominator element, which is the improvement of average power through K-point DFT sub-band. The superior time-frequency localization of DFT-s-OFDM across uplink transmissions reduces the requirement for difficult node-to-node synchronization, which is potentially used by the mMTC nodes. The proposed adaptive DFT-s-OFDM modulation scheme performs better than conventional OFDM modulation, which is approximately 24% more effective at 6 dB.& COPY; 2023 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
