Low-Complexity SLM PAPR Reduction Approach for UFMC Systems

The universal filtered multicarrier (UFMC) system is one of the novel candidate waveforms for 5G systems. UFMC is expected to achieve low latency, robustness against frequency offset, and reduce out-of-band (OoB) radiation that leads to a higher spectral efficiency. Although, the UFMC system offers many advantages as mentioned before, but being a multicarrier transmission technology, it suffers from high peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR). In this paper, a modified selected mapping (SLM) approach with low-complexity is proposed for reducing PAPR in UFMC systems. The main idea of the proposed modified SLM (P-SLM) approach is to utilize the linearity property of the UFMC modulator. The P-SLM approach generates <inline-formula> <tex-math notation="LaTeX">$U_{w}$ </tex-math></inline-formula> alternative UFMC waveforms using <inline-formula> <tex-math notation="LaTeX">$U_{m}$ </tex-math></inline-formula> UFMC modulators, where <inline-formula> <tex-math notation="LaTeX">$U_{m}$ </tex-math></inline-formula> is the square-root of <inline-formula> <tex-math notation="LaTeX">$U_{w}$ </tex-math></inline-formula>. Therefore, the computational complexity of the P-SLM approach is reduced compared to the existing SLM based PAPR reduction approaches for UFMC systems. The P-SLM approach is compared to the other approaches found in the literature in terms of PAPR reduction ability, bit error rate (BER) performance, and the computational complexity.
