Assoc. Sci. Technol. Dev. (IASTED) - Tech. Comm. Telecommun.One of the major disadvantages of OFDM communication systems is their high peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) which degrades system performance when nonlinear power amplifiers are employed. Among the proposed PAPR tech- niques companding is favorable due to its simplicity and easy of implementation. In this article, using the arctan- gent function we propose a new compading technique for PAPR reduction. We compare the proposed technique to the previously suggested exponential companding, and μ- law companding methods. Via computer simulations it is verified that the proposed technique is better than exponen- tial and μ-law companding methods for PAPR reduction.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessCompandingOfdmPeak To Average Power RatioConference Object10.2316/P.2011.730-0612-s2.0-80052169721
