To tightly control the signal envelope, estimating the peak regrowth between FFT samples is an important sub-problem in multicarrier communications. While the problem is well-investigated for trigonometric polynomials (i.e. OFDM), the impact of an aperiodic transmit filter is important too and typically neglected in the peak regrowth analysis. In this paper, we provide new bounds on the overshooting between samples for general multicarrier signals improving on available bounds for small oversampling factors. In particular, we generalize a result of [1, Theorem 4.10]. Our results will be extended to bound overshooting of a class of Nyquist filters as well. Eventually, results are related to some respective $L^1$-properties of these filters with application to filter design.
