PAPR, Spectral Efficiency, BER and SNR Analysis of OFDM: A Novel Partial Transmit Sequence-Particle Swarm Optimization Technique

Abstract

Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) is a widely used multicarrier modulation (MCM) technique in the field of wireless communications, specifically designed to facilitate high-speed data transmission. The use of several subcarriers inside an OFDM system for the transmission of modulated symbols results in the generation of OFDM signals with a significant peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR). In this study, we propose a novel approach for mitigating the high PAPR in wireless communication systems (WCS). Our method utilizes a partial transmit sequence (PTS) strategy, which is enhanced by using an adaptive particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm. In this study, we present a description of an OFDM system employing the standard PTS technique in conjunction with PSO. To mitigate computational complexity, the suggested methodology efficiently explores the optimal amalgamation of phase rotation components. Experimental findings demonstrate that the computational complexity and PAPR have been greatly minimized by the suggested method.
