Solution Overview

Problem

The high computational complexity and long processing time of polar coding in 5G systems lead to increased power consumption and inefficient use of radio resources, particularly due to the fixed application of sequential decoding algorithms.

Innovation Solution

Adaptive polar coding configuration is determined based on the capability of user equipment (UE) and channel state, including parameters such as the number of decoders, code length, decoding algorithms, and list size, to optimize processing time and power consumption.
