It is considered as anexcellent method for fast optical communication inferable from its high spectralefficiency and its strength to path losses. Peak to average power ratio isregarded as one of the main problems that are experienced by the opticalorthogonal frequency division multiplexing system, which directly affects thecharacteristics of the system. The current paper proposes an efficient techniqueto reduce Peak to Average Power Ratio by the modified Dursun’s method or theso called modified discrete sliding norm transformer in coherent opticalorthogonal frequency division multiplexing system for the first time to the baseof our knowledge consequently. The proposed technique does not need to sendside information to the receiver; also, it does not degrade bandwidth. Thisalgorithm lessens Peak to Average Power Ratio in the optical coherentOrthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing system to about 4.15 dB atcomplementary cumulative distribution function (CCDF) probability of 10-3 andimproves the system performance.
