39 results about "List decoding" patented technology

In coding theory, list decoding is an alternative to unique decoding of error-correcting codes for large error rates. The notion was proposed by Elias in the 1950s. The main idea behind list decoding is that the decoding algorithm instead of outputting a single possible message outputs a list of possibilities one of which is correct. This allows for handling a greater number of errors than that allowed by unique decoding.

A reliability parameter aided low complexity polar code rate matching method

The application claims a reliability parameter assisted low complexity polar code rate matching method, belonging to the technical field of wireless communication. In view of the problem that the recursive structure of polar code makes it difficult to select suitable puncturing bits during rate matching, a polar code puncturing bit selection algorithm based on reliability parameters is proposed. Based on the analysis of the decoding process of polar code and the influence of the box operation on the selected puncturing bits, a kind of information bit reliability parameter is defined to calculate the reliability of the candidate puncturing bits. The optimal puncturing bits are selected by solving the maximum reliability parameter minimum value through iteration. In view of the problem that the existing polar code rate matching method has high complexity, an interleaving algorithm based on rate matching parameter mapping and a pruning serial cancellation list decoding algorithm are proposed, which avoids the secondary sorting calculation of the interleaver and simplifies the updating strategy of the calculation unit of the decoder.
