The main disadvantage of orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) is the high time domain PAPR. The larger PAPR signal would fatally degrade BER performance in non-linear channels. This paper proposes an improved DSI method, which can achieve better PAPR and BER performances in the non-linear channel with less computation complexity than the conventional DSI method. The feature of proposed method is to employ the time-frequency domain swapping algorithm in the determination of frequency data for dummy sub-carriers. This paper presents various computer simulation results to verify the effectiveness of proposed DSI method.

This paper proposes a new Partial Transmit Sequence (PTS) method in conjunction with the concurrent algorithm for Space Time Block Code Multiple Input Multiple Output-Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (STBC MIMO-OFDM) systems. The feature of proposed PTS method is that each cluster is divided into two parts and these two parts employ the different weighting factors to achieve the better Peak to Average Power Ratio (PAPR) with keeping the same size of side information and almost the same size of computational complexity as that for the conventional concurrent PTS method.

One of the disadvantages of using OFDM is the larger peak to averaged power ratio (PAPR) of the time domain signal as compared with the conventional single carrier transmission method. The OFDM signal with larger PAPR will cause the undesirable spectrum re-growth and the larger degradation of bit error rate (BER) performance both due to the inter-modulation products occurring in the non-linear amplifier at the transmitter. The clipping method in conjunction with the Decision Aided Reconstruction (DAR) method is well known as one of the solutions to improve the BER performance with keeping the better PAPR performance. However, the DAR method is proposed to mitigate only the clipping noise and not for the inter-modulation noise. In this paper, we propose the Improved DAR (IDAR) method, which can mitigate both the clipping noise and inter-modulation noise on the basis of DAR method. The proposed method enables the efficient usage of transmission power amplifier at the transmitter with keeping the better PAPR and BER performances. This paper presents various computer simulation results to verify the performance of proposed IDAR method in the non-linear channel.

One of the disadvantages of using OFDM is the larger peak to averaged power ratio (PAPR) in its time domain signal as compared with the conventional single carrier modulation method. The larger PAPR signal would course the fatal degradation of bit error rate (BER) performance due to the inter-modulation noise occurring in the non-linear amplifier. To overcome this problem, this paper proposes a simple PAPR reduction method by using dummy sub-carriers, which can achieve the better PAPR performance with less computational complexity than the conventional method. This paper presents various computer simulation results to verify the effectiveness of proposed method as comparing with the conventional method in the non-linear channel.

The fifth-generation (5G) new radio (NR) standard employs ultra-reliable and low-latency communication (URLLC) to provide real-time wireless interactive capability for the internet of things (IoT) applications. To satisfy the stringent latency and reliability demands of URLLC services, grant-free (GF) transmissions with the K-repetition transmission (K-Rep) have been introduced. However, fading fluctuations can negatively impact signal quality at the base station (BS), leading to an increase in the number of repetitions and raising concerns about interference and energy consumption for IoT user equipment (UE). To overcome these challenges, this paper proposes novel adaptive K-Rep control schemes that employ site diversity reception to enhance signal quality and reduce energy consumption. The performance evaluation demonstrates that the proposed adaptive K-Rep control schemes significantly improve communication reliability and reduce transmission energy consumption compared with the conventional K-Rep scheme, and then satisfy the URLLC requirements while reducing energy consumption.
