In this paper, we discuss on the realization of reduced peak power transmission for the multicarrier systems. Since the signals have large amplitude fluctuations in conventional multicarrier systems, signals amplified by a nonlinear amplifier are greatly distorted, resulting in severe performance degradation. In order to avoid this large amplitude fluctuation, we propose a scheme for reducing the nonlinear distortion by using the set of the signal point series which show low peak to mean envelope power ratio (PMEPR) value. In this system, one symbol is transmitted with multicarriers and the received signal is detected with maximum likelihood sequence detection.
