Per carrier scaling of a cancellation pulse of a multi-carrier signal
Apparatuses, methods, and systems for per carrier scaling of a cancellation pulse of a multi-carrier signal are disclosed. One method includes identifying a target PAPR (peak to average power ratio) for the multi-carrier signal, identifying a target EVM (error vector magnitude) for each of cj carriers of the multi-carrier signal, setting a scaling factor for each of the cj carrier to an initial value, or each carrier cj adjusting the scaling factor for the carrier cj until a measured EVM of the carrier cj satisfies the target EVM for the subcarrier cj while maintaining the PAPR target for the multi-carrier signal, and the cancellation pulse of the multi-carrier signal with the adjusted scaling factor for each of the cj carriers.

adjusting the scaling factor for the carrier cj until a measured EVM of the carrier cj satisfies the target EVM for a subcarrier cj, while maintaining the PAPR target for the multi-carrier signal; and
scaling the cancellation pulse of the multi-carrier signal with the adjusting of the scaling factor for the cj carriers, resulting in a scaled cancellation pulse.

adjust the scaling factor for the cj carriers until a measured EVM of the cj carriers satisfies the target EVM for a subcarrier cj while maintaining the PAPR target for the multi-carrier signal; and
scale a cancellation pulse of the multi-carrier signal with the adjusted scaling factor for the cj carriers, resulting in a scaled cancellation pulse.
