Abstract :
Results from the branch of statistics known as extreme value theory are applied to the problem of calculating the probability of occurrence of large peaks in the signals produced by communication systems employing multichannel angle modulation. Results are obtained in the specific case of digital audio broadcasting (DAB), and a scheme for reducing the probability of large peaks is briefly discussed
