Title
On the peak-to-average power ratio reduction in mobile WiMAX: A discrete cosine transform matrix precoding based random-interleaved orthogonal frequency division multiple access uplink system
Abstract
Mobile worldwide interoperability for microwave access (Mobile WiMAX) is a broadband wireless solution that enables the convergence of mobile and fixed broadband networks through a common wide area radio-access (RA) technology and flexible network architecture. Since January 2007, the IEEE 802.16 working group (WG) has been developing a new amendment of the IEEE 802.16 standard i.e. IEEE 802.16m as an advanced air interface to meet the requirements of ITU-R/IMT-Advanced for 4G systems. The mobile WiMAX air interface adopts orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA) as multiple access technique for its uplink (UL) and downlink (DL) to improve the multipath performance. All OFDMA based networks, including mobile WiMAX experiences the problem of high peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR). This paper presents: Discrete-Cosine transform matrix (DCTM) precoding based random-interleaved OFDMA uplink system and selecting mapping (SLM) based DCTM precoded random-interleaved OFDMA uplink system respectively, for PAPR reduction in mobile WiMAX systems. PAPR of the proposed systems is analyzed with the root-raised-cosine (RRC) pulse shaping to keep out of band radiation low and to meet the transmission spectrum mask requirement. Simulation results show that, the proposed systems have low PAPR than the Walsh-Hadamard transform (WHT) precoded random-interleaved OFDMA uplink systems and the conventional random-interleaved OFDMA uplink systems. Symbol-error-rate (SER) performance of the proposed system is also better than the conventional random-interleaved OFDMA uplink systems and at par with WHT based random-interleaved OFDMA uplink systems. Good improvement in PAPR and SER offered by the proposed systems can notably reduce the cost and complexity of the transmitter.
