SFBC with clipping and filtering as a transmit diversity technique in SC-FDMA

The paper presents Space-Frequency Block Coding (SFBC) as a transmit diversity technique in Single Carrier Frequency Division Multiple Access (SC-FDMA). SC-FDMA is known as a low Peak-to-Average Power Ratio(PAPR) modulation technique. SFBC requires changing the order of the samples in the frequency domain, which results in increase of the PAPR. Because of that, additional clipping and filtering is proposed to be performed after SFBC to preserve low PAPR level and to avoid the out-of-band radiation. This affects the performance, but still provides significant advantage to the existing techniques, as is shown using simulations.
