However, the OFDM possesses an obvious shortage in its high ratio of the peak power to the average power (PAPR), which has become the main issue holding it back to be applied to the broadband satellite communication system. OFDM combined with time division multiplexing (TDM), dividing the subcarriers of OFDM into some blocks in time tune, can decrease the high PAPR of OFDM.
