The main disadvantage of multicarrier system is the high peak-to-average power ratio which can easily result in significant cut-the-top distortion of power amplifier. However, the power efficiency of power amplifier will be reduced by power back-off technology. Therefore, crest factor reduction is important in reducing the peak-to-average power ratio of multicarrier system and improving the efficiency of power amplifier. The peak-to-average power ratio can be effectively reduced with small distortion by the algorithm of crest factor reduction based on peak cancellation. And the performance of peak-to-average power ratio is better with the same error vector magnitude.
