MITIGATION OF TRANSMITTED ENERGY ON SUBCARRIERS USING DIVIDED AMPLIFIERS

Abstract

Embodiments of the present disclosure are directed to systems and methods for mitigating energy transmitted on subcarriers in a communications network. For example, a signal intended for transmission can be separated and distributed to different amplifiers at the signal amplification stage. Amplifiers that correspond with regions of blanked PRBs in the signal can be selectively deactivated. In this way, energy wastage is reduced and interference is mitigated due to preventing residual energy transmission that may occur in the blanked regions even when no information is being carried in those regions of the signal.
