Abstract:
An OFDM transmitter that performs a peak reduction process in a stepwise manner on a signal sequence to be transmitted. The transmitter includes a dividing IFFT unit that divides a signal sequence into a plurality of signal sequences and IFFTs each of the signal sequences to obtain time signal sequences. Then, a first peak reduction processing unit cyclically shifts a first one of the time signal sequences by a first amount of cyclic shift obtained based on a first threshold to obtain a first cyclically shifted time signal sequence, and adds the first cyclically shifted time signal sequence and a second one of the time signal sequences. Meanwhile, a second peak reduction processing unit cyclically shifts a third one of the time signal sequences by a second amount of cyclic shift obtained based on a second threshold to obtain a second cyclically shifted time signal sequence.

The radio transmitter includes an amplitude measuring part for measuring the amplitude of a transmission signal on which inverse Fourier transform has been performed; a power control part for outputting, based on the result of the measurement, control signals each for adjusting the amplitude of a signal on which inverse Fourier transform has not been performed, each signal corresponding to one of plural sub-carriers; and multiple multiplying parts each for multiplying the amplitude of the signal by a multiplying number indicated by the control signal. The power control part outputs the control signal based on a product of a signal pf(n) obtained by performing Fourier transform on an output of the amplitude measuring part and the signal sf(n).

An OFDM transmitter is configured to perform a peak reduction process on a signal sequence to be transmitted in a stepwise manner to transmit a peak processed transmission signal. The OFDM transmitter includes a dividing inverse fast Fourier transform unit (104) configured to divide the signal sequence to be transmitted into N signal sequences (N>2) and perform inverse fast Fourier transform on each of the divided signal sequences to output N time signal sequences; a threshold control unit (106) configured to determine at least two threshold values (Cth) used in the stepwise peak reduction process; and a first peak reduction processing unit (1201) configured to determine a first cyclic shift to be applied to one of the time signal sequences based on a first one of the threshold values, produce a first cyclically shifted signal sequence according to the first cyclic shift, and output a first peak processed signal sequence based on the first cyclically shifted signal sequence. The first cyclic shift is determined such that an exceeding power level over the first threshold value in the first peak processed signal sequence becomes the minimum.
