Abstract
This paper addresses the reduction of peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) and synchronization errors of an orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) for Mobile-WiMAX physical layer (PHY) standard. In the process, the best achievable PAPR of 0 dB with efficient power amplification is found for the OFDM signal using phase modulation technique, which avoids the nonlinear distortion. Further, the constant modulus algorithm (CMA) and sign kurtosis maximization adaptive algorithm (SKMAA) equalizers are used in the system to reduce the synchronization errors. However, the experimental study is performed on a test platform for a practical proof of the concept. The test platform is based on the Ettus universal software radio peripheral (USRP) N210 hardware and the GNU Radio open source software. Several tests are carried out to observe the effect of equalizers on the system. The performance comparison of bit error rate/symbol error rate (BER/SER) values are tabulated for the system with and without equalization.
