In this paper, the peak to mean envelope power (PMEPR) of the OFDM codes generated from a 16-QAM constellation is discussed. Maintaining the same level of error correction properties, these codes achieve higher information rate. A new set of 16-QAM Golay sequences having PMEPR bounded up to 3 dB is defined. Many recursive structures are found to generate Super Golay sequences. The recursive algorithm is started by a generalized realization of a 16-QAM sequence as a weighted sum of two QPSK sequences. The coding rate and information rate of the generated code is compared to similar works.
