A Modified Selected Mapping Scheme for Peak-to-Average Power Ratio Reduction in Polar-Coded Orthogonal Frequency-Division Multiplexing Systems

This paper proposes a modified polar coding-based selected mapping (PC-SLM) scheme to reduce the peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) in orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) systems. In the proposed transmitter, modulated signal vector for a subset of frozen bits, termed PAPR bits, are pr...

description This paper proposes a modified polar coding-based selected mapping (PC-SLM) scheme to reduce the peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) in orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) systems. In the proposed transmitter, modulated signal vector for a subset of frozen bits, termed PAPR bits, are precomputed, enabling a single polar encoder and modulator to generate multiple modulation symbols, thereby significantly reducing the hardware complexity compared to existing PC-SLM schemes. To achieve side information (SI)-free transmission, a novel belief propagation (BP)-based receiver is introduced, incorporating a G-matrix-based early termination criterion and a frozen bit check (BP-GF) for joint detection and decoding. Simulation results show that the proposed scheme significantly reduces PAPR across various code lengths, with greater gains as the number of PAPR bits increases. Furthermore, for PC-SLM schemes employing the partially frozen bit method, the BP-GF-based receiver achieves a PAPR reduction and error correction performance comparable to that of the successive cancellation (SC)-based receiver. Additionally, the BP-GF-based receiver exhibits lower decoding latency than the successive cancellation list (SCL)-based receiver.
