In general, the high peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) of transmitted signals for OFDM systems reduces the system efficiency and hence increases the cost of the radio frequency (RF) power amplifier. In this paper, a modified hybrid algorithm is developed to obtain better PAPR reduction performance and reduce computational complexity compared with the conventional hybrid scheme. This proposed algorithm combines selected mapping (SLM) with partial transmit sequence (PTS) strategies, and further employs linear addition and exchange of various PTS sub-blocks to create more alternative OFDM signal sequences. As a result, with the same numbers of IFFT and phase rotation sequences, our proposed algorithm has the potentials to provide better PAPR reduction performance with lower computational complexity.
