Peak to average power ratio reduction in wireless communication systems

Abstract

According to an example aspect of the present disclosure, there is provided a method for transmitting a Discrete Fourier Transform-spread-Orthogonal Frequency Domain Multiplexed. DFT-s-OFDM, signal, the method comprising, converting, by a wireless transmitter, complex-valued symbols to polar domain symbols, wherein the complex-valued symbols are modulated using at least phase shift keying, processing, by the wireless transmitter, angle values of the polar domain symbols to avoid angle differences larger than π rad, or lower than −π rad, between consecutive angle values, interpolating, by the wireless transmitter, at least the processed angle values by an interpolation factor N/L, wherein L is a length of Fast Fourier Transform, FFT, and Nis length of Inverse FFT, IFFT, converting, by the wireless transmitter, the interpolated angle values into complex domain symbols and generating, by the wireless transmitter, a DFT-s-OFDM waveform comprising said complex domain symbols.
