摘　　要：In this paper,a novel efficient continuous piecewise nonlinear companding scheme is proposed for reducing the peak-to-average power ratio(PAPR)of orthogonal frequency division multiplexing(OFDM)systems.In the proposed companding transform,signal samples with large amplitudes is clipped for peak power reduction,and the signal samples with medium amplitudes is nonlinear transformed with power compensation.While the signal samples with small amplitudes remain unchanged.The whole companding function is continuous and smooth in the range of positive numbers,which is beneficial for guaranteeing the bit error rate(BER)and power spectral density(PSD)performance.This scheme can achieve a significant reduction in PAPR.And at the same time,it cause little increment in BER and PSD performance.Simulation results indicate the superiority of the proposed scheme over existing companding schemes.
