Gaussian approximation (GA) is widely used to construct polar codes. However when the code length is long, the subchannel selection inaccuracy due to the calculation error of conventional approximate GA (AGA), which uses a two-segment approximation function, results in a catastrophic performance loss. In this paper, new principles to design the GA approximation functions for polar codes are proposed. First, we introduce the concepts of polarization violation set (PVS) and polarization reversal set (PRS) to explain the essential reasons that the conventional AGA scheme cannot work well for the long-length polar code construction. In fact, these two sets will lead to the rank error of subsequent subchannels, which means the orders of subchannels are misaligned, which is a severe problem for polar code construction. Second, we propose a new metric, named cumulative-logarithmic error (CLE), to quantitatively evaluate the remainder approximation error of AGA in logarithm. We derive the upper bound of CLE to simplify its calculation. Finally, guided by PVS, PRS and CLE bound analysis, we propose new construction rules based on a multi-segment approximation function, which obviously improve the calculation accuracy of AGA so as to ensure the excellent performance of polar codes especially for the long code lengths. Numerical and simulation results indicate that the proposed AGA schemes are critical to construct the high-performance polar codes.

This paper proposes a polar code construction scheme that reduces constituent-code supplemented decoding latency. Constituent codes are the sub-codewords with specific patterns. They are used to accelerate the successive cancellation decoding process of polar code without any performance degradation. We modify the traditional construction approach to yield increased number of desirable constituent codes that speeds the decoding process. For (n,k) polar code, instead of directly setting the k best and (n-k) worst bits to the information bits and frozen bits, respectively, we swap the locations of some information and frozen bits carefully according to the qualities of their equivalent channels. We conducted the simulation of 1024 and 2048 bits length polar codes with multiple rates and analyzed the decoding latency for various length codes. The numerical results show that the proposed construction scheme generally is able to achieve at least around 20% latency deduction with an negligible loss in gain with carefully selected optimization threshold.

A modification of Koetter-Kschischang codes for random networks is presented (these codes were also studied by Wang et al. in the context of authentication problems). The new codes have higher information rate, while maintaining the same error-correc ting capabilities. An efficient error-correcting algorithm is proposed for these codes.

Polar codes are the first class of constructive channel codes achieving the symmetric capacity of the binary-input discrete memoryless channels. But the corresponding code length is limited to the power of two. In this paper, we establish a systemati c framework to design the rate-compatible punctured polar (RCPP) codes with arbitrary code length. A new theoretic tool, called polar spectra, is proposed to count the number of paths on the code tree with the same number of zeros or ones respectively. Furthermore, a spectrum distance SD0 (SD1) and a joint spectrum distance (JSD) are presented as performance criteria to optimize the puncturing tables. For the capacity-zero puncturing mode (punctured bits are unknown to the decoder), we propose a quasi-uniform puncturing algorithm, analyze the number of equivalent puncturings and prove that this scheme can maximize SD1 and JSD. Similarly, for the capacity-one mode (punctured bits are known to the decoder), we also devise a reversal quasi-uniform puncturing scheme and prove that it has the maximum SD0 and JSD. Both schemes have a universal puncturing table without any exhausted search. These optimal RCPP codes outperform the performance of turbo codes in LTE wireless communication systems.
We investigate variable-length feedback (VLF) codes for the Gaussian point-to-point channel under maximal power, average error probability, and average decoding time constraints. Our proposed strategy chooses $K < infty$ decoding times $n_1, n_2, dot s, n_K$ rather than allowing decoding at any time $n = 0, 1, 2, dots$. We consider stop-feedback, which is one-bit feedback transmitted from the receiver to the transmitter at times $n_1, n_2, ldots$ only to inform her whether to stop. We prove an achievability bound for VLF codes with the asymptotic approximation $ln M approx frac{N C(P)}{1-epsilon} - sqrt{N ln_{(K-1)}(N) frac{V(P)}{1-epsilon}}$, where $ln_{(K)}(cdot)$ denotes the $K$-fold nested logarithm function, $N$ is the average decoding time, and $C(P)$ and $V(P)$ are the capacity and dispersion of the Gaussian channel, respectively. Our achievability bound evaluates a non-asymptotic bound and optimizes the decoding times $n_1, ldots, n_K$ within our code architecture.
This paper presents an efficient hardware design approach for list successive cancellation (LSC) decoding of polar codes. By applying path-overlapping scheme, the l instances of (l > 1) successive cancellation (SC) decoder for LSC with list size l ca n be cut down to only one. This results in a dramatic reduction of the hardware complexity without any decoding performance loss. We also develop novel approaches to reduce the latencyassociated with the pipeline scheme. Simulation results show that with proposed design approach the hardware efficiency is increased significantly over the recently proposed LSC decoders.
