ABSTRACT

Multi-carrier modulation is an attractive technique for fourth generation wireless communication. Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) is multi-carrier transmission scheme. Its high Peak to Average Power Ratio (PAPR) of the transmitted signal is a major drawback. In this paper, we propose to reduce PAPR by probabilistic method Modified selective mapping technique using the standard arrays of linear block codes. We choose lowest PAPR in each coset of a linear block codes as its coset leader from several transmitted signal. Simulation results show that PAPR results are better as compared to earlier work done by Yang Jie ,Chen Lei et al. The paper also compared PAPR QPSK/DQPSK-OFDM with and without SLM.
