Abstract: A transmitter and the method therefor are provided. The transmitter is applied in an orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) based or other multicarrier communication systems. The transmitter uses N sub-carriers. Among the N sub-carriers, L sub-carriers (or tones) are reserved for PAPR reduction. L is less than N. The method includes the following steps. Original frequency domain data symbols are generated and fed into the reserved-tone symbol generation unit. The reserved-tone symbols are generated by using pure frequency domain signal processing. Then the reserved-tone symbols are combined with original data symbols to generate combined PAPR reduction signal. The resultant PAPR reduction signal can be fed into reserved-tone symbol generation unit iteratively to obtain updated reserved-tone symbols. For proper iterations, the original data symbols combined with L frequency domain reserved-tone symbols will result in lower PAPR transmit signal.

Abstract: An address generator of a communication data interleaver and a communication data decoding circuit are provided. The address generator includes a first operation unit and a second operation unit. The first operation unit receives a first parameter and a first operation result. The first operation unit performs a recursive operation according to the first parameter and the first operation result and outputs the first operation result. The second operation unit receives the first operation result, a second operation result, and a second parameter. According to a transmission mode signal, whether the second operation unit generates a second operation result is determined by performing a recursive operation according to the first operation result, the second parameter, and the second operation result, or by calculating the first operation result and the second parameter.

Abstract: In wireless communication system and method, a guard band detection (GBD) is performed in a channel to detect the existence of guard bands of a correct channel, so to predetermine that whether the current channel is correct or not. If GBD and a subsequent authorization are both passed in the channel, then the channel is determined as the correct channel. Besides, multiple point estimation (MPE) can be used to analyze the signal strengths in different frequencies to predict the location of the correct channel.
