A novel peak-to-average power ratio (PAR) control algorithm for feedback-controlled multitone-hopping code-division multiple access (FC/MH-CDMA) signals is proposed. In FC/MH-CDMA, since each chip consists of plural tones, the energy consumption due to a large PAR is not negligible at the transmitter. The proposed PAR control algorithm iteratively constructs a time-frequency code that achieves a preset, target PAR under the condition that all signals are asynchronously transmitted. A PAR of 1dB is shown to be achievable, and the bit-error rate performance is shown to be only slightly influenced if the target PAR is set to be larger than 3dB. The influence of quantization is also discussed in terms of its application to limited feedback channels.
