A reduced complexity tone reservation peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) reduction method for multicarrier signals with nonorthogonal frequency spacing (Spectrally Efficient Frequency Division Multiplexing, SEFDM) is proposed. It is based on the Tone Reservation method and suits for big number of subcarriers. It is proposed to use a small part of the frequency band gain obtained by SEFDM signals to reduce PAPR with no need to send side information to receiver. In the proposed algorithm, additional subcarriers for PAPR reduction are equally spaced over the signal bandwidth with randomly generated different combinations of manipulation symbols. The degree of reduction of the PAPR depends on the normalized subcarrier frequency spacing, the number of attempts of reserved subcarrier symbol combinations generation and number of subcarriers. Complexity issues for the proposed PAPR reduction algorithm are also considered: simple low additional resource approach based on reduced size IFFT blocks is recommended.
