ABSTRACT:
The present application relates to a communication method in which a succession of time domain symbols (TDS) are transmitted by a transmitter to one or more receivers. Each time domain symbol has a plurality of signals which are transmitted in parallel by the transmitter. The signals may comprise data signals or pilot signals. At the transmitter, a set of pilot signals assigned to a given time domain symbol is provided with information about a phase vector applied to the time domain symbol. The phase vector is preferably selected with consideration of the reduction in the ratio of peak-to-average-power which can be achieved when the vector is applied to the time domain symbol. Transmitters and receivers for use in the communication method are also provided. The invention is particularly application to OFDM communication systems.
