You should now see a display that is similar to the one shown in

Figure 9- 7

. The CCDF plot

displays the peak to average characteristics of the waveform with all phases set to zero.

.

You should now see a display that is similar to the one shown in

Figure 9- 8

. The CCDF plot

displays the peak to average characteristics of the waveform with randomly generated phases and
a random seed.

The random phase setup simulates the typically random nature of multitone waveforms. Notice
that randomly distributed phases result in a much lower peak to average ratio than fixed phases.
An increase in the number of tones with random phases will decrease the probability of a
maximum peak power occurrence.
