Clipping-Noise Guided Sign-Selection for PAR Reduction in OFDM Systems
The peak-to-average power ratio (PAR) of orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) systems can be reduced by using an optimal set of subcarrier signs. However, this sign se...

Nonlinear and Nonideal Sampling: Theory and Methods
We study a sampling setup where a continuous-time signal is mapped by a memoryless, invertible and nonlinear transformation, and then sampled in a nonideal manner. Such scenarios a...
