Abstract

Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) is a common technique in multi carrier communications. One of the major issues in developing OFDM is the high peak to average power ratio (PAPR). Golay sequences have been introduced to construct 64-quaternary amplitude modulation (QAM) code for the OFDM, reducing the peak-to-mean envelope power ratio. In this paper we have considered the use of coding to reduce the peak-to-mean envelope power ratio (PAPR) for OFDM systems. By using QPSK and BPSK Golay sequences, 64-QAM sequences with low PAPR are generated and analyzed.
