Abstract
In this paper, two distortionless PAPR reduction techniques, Selected Mapping (SLM) and Partial Transmit Sequences (PTS), are compared in terms of PAPR reduction capability and computational complexity for equal number of candidate OFDM symbols. Using MATLAB simulation, it is shown that SLM outperforms PTS in PAPR reduction capability. For small values of the number of subblock partitions, the overall computational complexity of PTS is less than SLM. However, the required PAPR reduction level may not be achieved using small values of number of subblock partitions. Hence, for large values of number of subblock partitions used in PTS, the overall computational complexity of PTS is greater than SLM. In that case, SLM outperforms PTS both in PAPR reduction capability and computational complexity.
