Abstract: The power consumption is an essential issue for designers of mobile devices. Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) suffers from its Peak – to – Average Power Ratio (PAPR) problem. The Discrete Fourier Transmission Spread OFDM (DFTS-OFDM) based on Single Carrier Frequency Division Multiple Access (SC-FDMA) has been widely adopted due to its lower peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) of transmits signals compared with OFDM. There are three types of mapping in SCFDMA. These namely Localized FDMA (LFDMA), Distributed FDMA (DFDMA), and Interleaved FDMA (IFDMA). In this paper, we propose a modified SCFDMA. This is based on using Hadamard transform instead of Fast Fourier Transform (FFT). Utilizing LFDMA Mapping techniques this is proposed for uplink scenario of LTE. Simulation results show that the proposed scheme reduces PAPR compared to the conventional SCFDMA while the BER does not degraded.
