The single carrier block transmission (SCBT) system has become one of the most popular modulation systems because of its low peak to average power ratio (PAPR). This work proposes precoding design on the transmitter side to retain low PAPR, improve performance, and reduce computational complexity on the receiver side. The system is designed according to the following procedure. First, upper-triangular dirty paper coding (UDPC) is utilized to pre-cancel the interference among multiple streams and provide a one-tap time-domain equalizer for the SCBT system. Next, to solve the problem of the high PAPR of the UDPC precoding system, Tomlinson-Harashima precoding (THP) is developed. Finally, since the UDPC-THP system is degraded by the deep fading channels, the dynamic channel on/off assignment by the maximum capacity algorithm (MCA) and minimum BER algorithm (MBA) is proposed to enhance the bit error rate (BER) performance. Simulation results reveal that the proposed precoding transceiver can provide excellent BER and low PAPR performances for the SCBT system over a multipath fading channel.
