In this OFDM, since it outperforms OFDM in terms of PAPR and paper, we compare the performance of Wavelet-OFDM based BER at the cost of increased complexity. on Meyer wavelet, and OFDM in terms of peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR), bit error rate (BER) for different channels The remainder of this paper is organized as follows.
