CONCLUSION
SC-FDMA is a promising technique for high data rate uplink communication in future cellular systems. Within a specific SC-FDMA system configuration, there are many design and operational choices that affect performance in a complex manner. A salient advantage of SCFDMA over OFDM/OFDMA is low PAPR. SC-FDMA has drawn great attention as an attractive alternative to OFDMA, especially in the uplink communications where lower PAPR greatly benefits the mobile terminal in terms of transmit power efficiency and manufacturing cost. In this report, we gave a detailed overview of an SC-FDMA system. We also explained the different subcarrier mapping schemes in SC-FDMA; distributed and localized. The two flavors of subcarrier mapping schemes give the system designer a flexibility to adapt to the specific needs and requirements.
