Optimum power allocation in OFDM systems under power amplifier nonlinearity

In this paper, the optimum power allocation for subcarriers in orthogonal frequency division multiple system is derived which maximizes the total rate of system under nonlinearity of practical power amplifier. The rate of system by using analytical signal to interference ratio formula is optimized to derive optimal power scales for subcarriers. The problem is nonconvex and a comprehensive learning particle swarm optimization method is designed to solve the problem. The simulation results demonstrate that by considering nonlinearity in power allocation, better rate can be achieved compared to conventional power allocation methods.
