The main objective of SC-FDMA is to introduce transmission with lower PAPR than OFDMA .
Read moreWhy SC-FDMA is used in uplink?
SC-FDMA is preferred for LTE uplink mainly due to its advantage of having low peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) during signal transmission . The performance of SC-FDMA depends on modulation scheme used for it.
Read moreWhere is FDMA used?
It is used in satellite communication systems and telephone trunklines . FDMA splits the total bandwidth into multiple channels. Each ground station on the earth is allocated a particular frequency group (or a range of frequencies).
