where f is the frequency interval between adjacent subcarriers, and fs = N f is the total bandwidth.
To better approximate the PAPR of continuous-time NCOFDM signals, the NC-OFDM signal samples are obtained by

A. PAPR Reduction
For the proposed sub-SC method, we should first initialize
the SC symbol Cp = 0 and the constellation adjustment symbol
Cs = 0. During each iteration, we first solve the first problem
and then solve the second problem. For the first problem, the
SC symbol Cp on PU subcarriers is seen as a constant, which
is obtained by (22) in the last iteration. Then, the constellation adjustment symbol Cs on SU subcarriers is employed to
generate the peak-canceling signal for PAPR reduction in the
NC-OFDM-based CR system. Moreover, Cs must obey the
principle rule shown in Fig. 3. Thus, the first problem can be
formulated as follows:

C. Power Constraint
Since the sub-SC method also increases the power of the
NC-OFDM signals, the sub-SC method should follow the
power constraint as shown in (15e). To maintain the power constraint (15e) for the sub-SC method, the iteration is terminated
whenever (15e) is not satisfied. This way, the sub-SC method
can jointly reduce the PAPR and suppress the sidelobe power
while maintaining the power constraint.
Therefore, the iterative sub-SC method can be summarized
in Algorithm 1.
Algorithm 1: The sub-SC method
1: Set the maximum iteration number K and the clipping
threshold A.
2: Set i = 0, and for the i = 0th iteration, set C0s = 0,
C0p = 0, and C0 = 0. Moreover, randomly generate the
original data block X = [X(0), X(1), . . . , X(N 1)] as
discussed in (1).

and obtain the constellation adjustment symbol Ci+1

5: Update the total SC symbol Ci+1 by (23) and calculate the total power X + Ci+1 22 . If the power con=
straint X + Ci+1 22 is not satisfied, output x
F(X + Ci+1 ) as the transmitted signal and terminate the
algorithm.
6: Set i = i + 1, if i < K, go to Step 3; Otherwise, take
a JN -point IDFT operation to X + Ci+1 to obtain the
and terminate the algorithm.

D. Complexity Analysis
The computational complexity of the sub-SC method mainly
depends on the cost of solving (P1) and (P2). For (P1), during
each iteration, one IDFT operation and one DFT operation are
needed; thus, the complexity of solving (P1) can be expressed
as O(2JN log JN ).
V. S IMULATION R ESULTS
Here, some simulations have been conducted to evaluate
the capability of the proposed SC and sub-SC methods, including the PAPR reduction and the sidelobe suppression performances, where the NC-OFDM-based CR system is considered
with N = 64 subcarriers, and the subcarrier interval is f =
22.5 kHz. Moreover, the target spectrum band occupied by PUs
is from 29f to 38f , in which 37 frequency sampling points
for the evaluation of the total sidelobe power are placed with the
equivalent space of (f )/4. Thus, a = 29, b = 38, M = 37,
and the remaining spectrum band is utilized by SUs. In addition,
104 independent NC-OFDM symbols modulated by 4-QAM
and 16-QAM are randomly generated with the oversampling
factor J = 2, and the Welch method with Blackman window is
used to calculate the power spectrum density of the transmitted
signals. Moreover, for the proposed SC and sub-SC methods,
the increased power threshold is set to be = (1 + )X22 in
the simulations, where is the parameter to adjust the power
threshold . For comparison, we also conduct simulations using
the conventional method, which simply turns off the subcarriers
in the target band, the AIC method [16], and the SLM method
[21], respectively. In the simulations, the SC method solves the
convex optimization problem (15) using the public software
CVX [26].
Fig. 4 shows the time-domain signal of the SC method with
= 0.5 and = 0.5 during one NC-OFDM symbol duration
when 4-QAM is employed. For the turning-off method, SLM
method, and SC method, the peak amplitude is 3.25, 3.00, and
2.51, respectively. Thus, compared with the turning-off method,
the AIC and SC methods can reduce the PAPR by 0.70 and
2.24 dB, respectively. Therefore, the proposed SC method
offers better PAPR reduction performance than the turning-off
and SLM methods. Moreover, the SC method does not need to
transmit side information to the receiver; as a result, the data
rate of the NC-OFDM-based CR system can be maintained.
Fig. 5 shows the PAPR reduction of the proposed SC method
with = 0.5 when is different for 4-QAM. As shown in
Fig. 5, the AIC method has the same PAPR as the turningoff method. Moreover, when CCDF = 103 , for = 0.1, 0.2,
0.3, 0.4, 0.5, and 0.6, the PAPR of the proposed SC method
is 10.0, 9.2, 8.3, 7.7, 7.3, and 7.1 dB, respectively. Therefore,
the proposed SC method can significantly reduce the PAPR of
the transmitted NC-OFDM signals, compared with the turningoff and AIC methods. Moreover, it is obvious in Fig. 5 that

Fig. 9 shows the normalized power spectrum of the NCOFDM signals with the proposed SC method when = 1 and
is different for 16-QAM. As shown in Fig. 9, the SLM method
can achieve a spectrum notch that is 8 dB deeper than that of
the turning-off method. Moreover, it is obvious that the sidelobe
suppression performance of the proposed SC method is better
than those of the turning-off, AIC, and SLM methods. For
example, compared with the turning-off method, when = 0.4
and 0.5, the SC method can improve the sidelobe suppression
by 12 and 9 dB, respectively.
Fig. 10 shows the PAPR reduction comparison of the sub-SC
method with the turning-off, AIC, SLM, and SC methods with
= 0.5. In addition, the maximum iteration number of the subSC method is K = 6. As shown in Fig. 10, the sub-SC method
can provide better PAPR reduction than that of the turning-off,
AIC, and SLM methods. For example, when CCDF = 103 ,
the PAPR of the turning-off, AIC, SLM, sub-SC with = 0.3,
972
and sub-SC with = 0.6 methods is 10.5, 10.5, 9.1, 8.4, and
7.9 dB, respectively. Thus, the sub-SC method can also provide
significant PAPR reduction. Although the PAPR reduction of
the sub-SC method is a bit worse than the SC method, the subSC method offers lower computational complexity than the SC
method. Therefore, the sub-SC method is efficient and offers
significant PAPR reduction with low computational complexity.
Fig. 11 shows the normalized power spectrum of the NCOFDM signals with the turning-off, SC with = 0.5, and subSC methods, respectively, and the maximum iteration number
is K = 6 for the sub-SC method. In Fig. 11, it is obvious that
the sub-SC method can provide better sidelobe suppression
performance than the turning-off method, and it can improve
the sidelobe suppression by 5 dB. Although the sidelobe suppression performance of the sub-SC method is not as good as
that of the SC method, the sub-SC method has much lower
computational complexity than the SC method. Therefore, the
sub-SC method is an efficient method for joint PAPR reduction
and sidelobe suppression with low computational complexity.
VI. C ONCLUSION
In this paper, we have proposed an SC method for joint
PAPR reduction and sidelobe suppression in NC-OFDM-based
CR systems. The proposed SC method dynamically extends
part of constellation points on the SU tones and adds several
SC symbols on the PU tones to jointly reduce the PAPR and
suppress the sidelobe of NC-OFDM signals. Moreover, we also
proposed a sub-SC method to efficiently reduce the PAPR and
suppress the sidelobe with low computational complexity. Simulation results show that both the SC and sub-SC methods can
provide significant PAPR reduction and sidelobe suppression
performances.
