Abstract

Single-carrier transmission is a promising transmission technique due to its low peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) property compared to multicarrier transmission, and using frequency-domain equalization (FDE) at the receiving side also mitigate the adverse effect of channel frequency-selectivity. An introduction of transmit filter can improve the system performance in terms of either PAPR or error probability. In this paper, we focus on the transmit filter aiming to reduce PAPR by employing the minimization of variance of instantaneous transmit power. Filter roll-off factor is also considered in order to provide excess-bandwidth transmission. With a combination of an FDE and spectrum combining at the receiver, excess-bandwidth transmission inherits additional frequency diversity gain, and therefore improves error probability. Performance evaluation of the proposed filtering algorithm is done by computer simulation, while the PAPR and bit-error rate (BER) performance of proposed algorithm are compared with conventional square-root Nyquist filter.
