Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to a low peak-to-average ratio LACO-OFDM method and system based on constellation expansion, belonging to the technical field of wireless optical communication. Background Art

[0002] At present, wireless spectrum communication is facing the dilemma of resource shortage. With the rapid development of the LED industry, wireless optical communication that uses light to transmit information is rapidly rising. Wireless optical communication is widely favored by researchers due to its advantages such as rich spectrum resources, diverse application scenarios, and high confidentiality. At the same time, wireless optical communication has no electromagnetic radiation and will not interfere with the radio frequency communication system. Therefore, wireless optical communication has become an effective supplement to wireless spectrum communication.

[0003] Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) is a multi-carrier modulation technology. Its working principle is to modulate data onto each subcarrier, and the subcarriers are used for data transmission. Each subcarrier is orthogonal, so data transmission in different frequency bands will not affect each other. OFDM technology has been widely used because of its high spectrum efficiency and its ability to effectively combat electromagnetic interference. In wireless optical communications, OFDM has also become a mainstream modulation method. On its basis, a variety of professional OFDM methods have been extended, such as DC biased optical OFDM (DCO-OFDM), asymmetric amplitude limiting optical (ACO-OFDM), hybrid ACO-OFDM (HACO-OFDM), etc., but these methods have defects in power or spectrum efficiency. For this reason, layered ACO-OFDM (LACO-OFDM) was proposed. This method can maintain the advantage of ACO-OFDM's high power efficiency. At the same time, the use of multi-layer ACO-OFDM superposition transmission effectively improves the spectrum efficiency. This method is regarded as a solution with broad application prospects in wireless optical communications.

[0004] OFDM has a high peak-to-average ratio (PAPR), which will cause signal distortion in the OFDM method under nonlinear conditions, resulting in deterioration of transmission performance. This problem is particularly prominent in the LACO-OFDM method. Since LACO-OFDM needs to use serial interference cancellation for signal detection, in nonlinear conditions, the detection errors caused by signal distortion in each layer will propagate to subsequent layers, causing serious performance deterioration. Therefore, how to effectively reduce the PAPR of LACO-OFDM has become a crucial issue. There are currently a variety of PAPR reduction technologies, including direct limiting, compression transformation, and pilot insertion, but these methods face problems such as reduced transmission performance and reduced bandwidth utilization. The PAPR method based on constellation expansion will not cause the problems of reduced performance and reduced bandwidth utilization, but the existing constellation expansion method for LACO-OFDM requires the use of a more complex convex optimization method and requires additional optimization tools such as CVX (Convex Optimization Toolbox), which is difficult to implement in actual systems.
