Filtered Non-Orthogonal Multiple Access (F-NOMA) is a multi-carrier wave form and is considered a suitable contender for 5G radio. Peak to average power ratio (PAPR) is regarded as a major hurdle in the NOMA wave form because it hampers the efficiency of the power amplifier of the NOMA transmitter. In this study, a novel selective mapping (SLM) algorithm is used to minimize the PAPR of the NOMA. The conventional SLM increases the intricacy of the structure, and the projected SLM algorithm is applied to the transmitter part of the F-NOMA. Furthermore, we evaluate the performance of SLM on F-NOMA for 16, 64, and 256-Quadrature Amplitude Modulation (QAM) transmission methods. The parameters such as Bit Error Rate (BER), PAPR, power spectral density (PSD), and complexity are estimated and compared with different transmission patterns. The simulation outcomes of the work reveal that the optimal PAPR can be achieved by selecting the sub-block (S) and phase rotation elements (Ps). PAPR in F-NOMA achieves 1 dB gain in different QAM transmissions and its saving performance is 70.07%; however, complexity increases with an increase in modulation order.
