Abstract— In communication field one of the recent emergingtechnology is the wireless technology. The wirelesscommunication provides high data transmission for a growingidea of 4G and 5G communications. The high data ratetransmission cannot be obtained by single carrier, so multicarriermodulation where we make use of subcarriers orthogonal to eachother i.e, OFDM signal. The main drawback of this signal is highpeak to average powers which causes distortion like in- band andout-band radiation. This survey paper presents different PAPRreduction techniques.
