Efficient PAPR reduction algorithm in OFDM based on nonlinear piecewise companding by Zhitong XING, Yun LI, Deyi PENG, Bensi ZHANG, Kaiming LIU, Yuan’an LIU

“…Focusing on the high peak-to-average power ratio （PAPR） problem in orthogonal frequency division multiplexing （OFDM） systems， a generalized hybrid of rayleigh and sine distribution based nonlinear companding algorithm for PAPR reduction in OFDM systems was provided.For the proposed algorithm， signal samples with small amplitudes remain unchanged.For the signal samples with large amplitudes， their probability density function were changed from rayleigh distribution to sine-based distribution.The proposed algorithm can effectively reduce the PAPR， and at the same time， maintain the bit error rate performance and power spectral density performance.Simulation results indicate that with the same PAPR performance， compared with referred companding schemes， the proposed algorithm has lower bit error rate and out of band radiation.…”

Tailoring pyridine bridged chalcogen-concave molecules for defects passivation enables efficient and stable perovskite solar cells by Muhammad Azam, Yao Ma, Boxue Zhang, Xiangfeng Shao, Zhongquan Wan, Huaibiao Zeng, Haomiao Yin, Junsheng Luo, Chunyang Jia

“…The uncoordinated Pb2+ and iodine vacancy defects can interact with chalcogen-concave group and pyridine group through the formation of the Lewis acid-base adduct, particularly both the defects can be surrounded by concave molecules, resulting in effective suppression charge recombination. This approach enables a power conversion efficiency (PCE) as high as 25.37% (25.18% certified) for n-i-p PSCs with stable operation at 65 °C and 1-sun illumination for 1300 hours in N2 (ISOS-L-2 protocol), retaining 94% of the initial efficiency. …”
