Design of OFDM Transceiver to Improve PAPR using Clipping Technique

Although OFDM is an efficient multi-carrier technique, it has a major limitation. The PAPR of a conventional OFDM signal is naturally high. In order to reduce it, many different techniques have been proposed and clipping is one of them. In this paper, we employ clipping as the PAPR reduction technique and propose a block diagram designed to reduce PAPR and improve the BER performance
