Effect of High-power Amplifier on OFDM/TDM

Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) Recently, to reduce a high peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) of OFDM we proposed OFDM combined with time division multiplexing (OFDM/TDM). Using the frequency-domain equalization (FDE), improved BER performance is achieved. Since the OFDM/TDM cannot completely solve the PAPR problem, some amount of input back-off (IBO) from the saturation point of high-power amplifier (HPA) may be required to reduce the signal distortion caused by the HPA nonlinearity. Moreover, if IBO is not carefuly chosen it may also affect the channel estimation (CE) required for FDE. In this paper, by computer simulation, we study the impact of HPA nonlinearity on OFDM/TDM with pilot-assisted CE over a frequency-selective fading channel. It is shown that the HPA nonlinearity increases the estimation error even when a pilot with constant amplitude in the time-domain is used. However, it is shown in this paper that if IBO is carefully chosen, OFDM/TDM allows lower IBO for the given BER in comparison with OFDM, leading to higher amplifier efficiency.
