Abstract
An apparatus relates generally to crest factor reduction. In this apparatus, a finite impulse response filter provides a first cancellation pulse and a second cancellation pulse. A first adder is coupled to receive an input signal and the first cancellation pulse to provide a first difference signal. A peak engine is coupled to receive the first difference signal to provide a cancellation pulse value responsive to the first difference signal. The finite impulse response filter is coupled to receive the cancellation pulse value to provide each of the first cancellation pulse and the second cancellation pulse. A delay is coupled to receive the input signal to provide a delayed input signal. A second adder is coupled to receive the delayed input signal and the second cancellation pulse to provide a second difference signal. The second difference signal is a crest factor reduced version of the delayed input signal.
