What Types Of Signals Have A High Crest Factor?

In this video, you will learn about the types of signals that have a high crest factor. High crest factor waveforms are commonly found in applications such as 5G networks that use advanced modulation schemes like orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM). When multiple independently modulated subcarriers are combined, it can cause extreme power peaks in multi-carrier OFDM systems. However, destructive interference between subcarriers and other factors can keep average power levels low in comparison.
