Method of forming position patterns of reserved subcarriers of NGB-W (Next Generation Broadcasting-Wireless) system

The invention provides a method of forming position patterns of reserved subcarriers of an NGB-W (Next Generation Broadcasting-Wireless) system. Each physical frame in the NGB-W system comprises signaling symbols, data symbols and frame tail symbols, and each kind of symbols is provided with different pilots. The signaling symbols include signaling pilots. The data symbols include scattered pilots, edge pilots and continuous pilots. The frame tail symbols include edge pilots and frame tail pilots. The method comprises the following steps that the positions of the reserved subcarriers are selected from the non-pilot positions of the signaling symbols, the data symbols and the frame tail symbols, wherein positions of the scattered pilots and the continuous pilots, positions three subcarriers right to the continuous pilots, positions six subcarriers right to the continuous pilots, positions nine subcarriers right to the continuous pilots, positions of the edge pilots, and positions of 12 subcarriers on each left edge of the two sub bands of the NGB-W system are removed from the data symbols. According to the method, an effect of reducing PAPR (Peak to Average Power Ratio) can be well achieved by occupying 1% of subcarriers only.
