METHODS, SYSTEMS, AND APPARATUS FOR RATELESS POLAR CODING AND LOW-COMPLEXITY DECODING

Abstract

A reduced number of interleaved encoded bits is obtained by encoding input bits by a polar code and interleaving a subset of the encoded bits obtained by the encoding. The polar code comprises a number of bit indices for placing bit values before encoding, including a first set of bit indices for placing values of the input bits and a second set of bit indices for placing a predetermined bit value. The first set of bit indices comprises a first subset of bit indices and a second subset of bit indices. The subset of the encoded bits corresponds to the second subset of the bit indices, and is for reducing the number of the encoded bits. An input bit value placed on both a first bit index in the first subset and a second bit index in the second subset, and the second bit index is based on the interleaving.
