Low-PAPR Preamble Design for FBMC Systems
share
This paper presents a family of training preambles for offset QAM (OQAM) based filter-bank multi-carrier (FBMC) modulations with low peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) property. We propose to use binary Golay sequences as FBMC preambles and analyze the maximum PAPR for different numbers of zero guard symbols. For both the PHYDYAS and Hermite prototype filters with overlapping factor of 4, as an illustration of the proposed preambles, we show that a preamble PAPR less than 3 dB can be achieved with probability of one, when three or more zero guard symbols are inserted in the vicinity of each preamble.
