Example embodiments of the present disclosure relate to devices, methods, apparatuses and computer readable storage media of enhanced decoding for polarization code. The method includes determining a likelihood sequence associated with a signal sequence received from a second device via a communication channel between the second device and the first device; generating a set of candidate sequences of the signal by processing the likelihood sequence with a first operation; determining a reference sequence by processing the likelihood sequence with a second operation different from the first operation; and determining a target sequence of the signal from the set of candidate sequences at least partially based on the reference sequence. In this way, the decoding at receiver side can be enhanced to less rely on CRC during decoding. This could dramatically improve the overall performance of the channel.

Disclosed are an apparatus and method for successive cancellation flip decoding of a polar code. The apparatus for successive cancellation flip decoding of a polar code according to an embodiment includes an iterative unit subtotal matrix generator configured to generate an iterative unit subtotal matrix corresponding to a preset iterative unit size based on a portion of an entire subtotal matrix, a selection logic configured to determine one or more selection bits based on a bit string representing a position of a bit returned when re-decoding and generate an auxiliary matrix for generating the entire subtotal matrix from the one or more selection bits, and an entire subtotal matrix generator configured to generate the entire subtotal matrix by using the iterative unit subtotal matrix and the auxiliary matrix.

The present disclosure discloses a new coding scheme, which is constructed by superimposing together a pair of basic codes in a twisted manner. A SCL decoding algorithm is proposed for the TPST codes, which may be early terminated by a preset threshold on the empirical divergence functions (EDF) to trade off performance with decoding complexity. The SCL decoding of TPST is based on the efficient list decoding of the basic codes, where the correct candidate codeword in the decoding list is distinguished by employing a typicality-based statistical learning aided decoding algorithm. Lower bounds for the two layers of TPST are derived, which may be used to predict the decoding performance and to show the near-ML performance of the proposed SCL decoding algorithm. The construction of TPST codes may be generalised by allowing different basic codes for the two layers.

There is provided mechanisms for mitigating passive intermodulation in a first network node, wherein said PIM is caused by radio signals transmitted from at least an adjacent network node. The method is performed by a control device. The method comprises receiving at least an uplink radio signal and down-converting the received UL radio signal to a UL baseband signal. The method applies a cyclic redundancy check, CRC, to detected information bits of the received UL baseband signal, wherein in response to determining by the CRC that the UL baseband signal is detected correctly, directly output the detected information bits. The method comprises in response to determining by the CRC that the UL baseband signal is incorrectly detected, determining a residual signal of the received UL baseband signal applying a blind signal identification scheme on the residual signal of the UL baseband signal to obtain an estimate for a modeled PIM signal. The method comprises subtracting the estimated modelled PIM signal from the received UL baseband signal as in the first step and updating the received UL baseband signal in an iterative process until CRC is detected correctly or until number of iterations exceeds a predetermined threshold.

The disclosed systems, structures, and methods are directed to encoding and decoding information for transmission across a communication channel. The encoding method includes: distributing the information bits between m parallel polar codes such that each of the m parallel polar codes includes a subset of the information bits; splitting the subset of information bits in each of the m parallel polar codes into a protected information section and a full rate information section; protecting information bits in the protected information section of each of the m parallel polar codes; arranging a plurality of frozen bits in each of the m parallel polar codes; and generating a polar encoded codeword for each of the m parallel polar codes.

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described. A method of wireless communication at a user equipment (UE) is described that may include receiving a data packet transmission over a wireless channel from a base station. The method may further include determining a set of intrinsic log likelihood ratios (LLRs) based at least in part on the data packet transmission and determining an accumulated capacity for the wireless channel based at least in part on the set of intrinsic LLRs. The method may also include determining a channel quality indicator index or a transmission rank for the wireless channel based at least in part on the accumulated capacity and transmitting a feedback message that indicates the channel quality indicator index or the transmission rank for the wireless channel to the base station.

System and method embodiments are provided for a receiver for circularly convolved signals. In an embodiment, a universal decoder for a circularly convolved signal includes a first decoder configured to decode the circularly convolved signal; a second decoder configured to decode a plurality of symbol lengths signal from a first portion of the circularly convolved signal, wherein the plurality of symbol lengths signal is time aligned with the circularly convolved signal before passing through the second decoder; and an adder component configured to sum a first decoder output coming from the first decoder and a second decoder output coming from the second decoder to produce a symbol value from which a log likelihood ratio (LLR) output is obtained.

Apparatuses, computer readable media, and methods are provided for enhancing hybrid automatic repeat request (ARQ) performance. In an example method, a communication device transmits a first element of a vector, where the vector is selected using the information bits to be transmitted as an index in a code book. In some embodiments, this code book is constructed using Linear Constellation Precoding (LCP). If a NACK is received, the communication device transmits a second element of the vector. The process of transmitting elements of the vector continues until an ACK is received or the maximum number of transmission attempts is reached. If an ACK is received, the communication device transmits a first element of another vector of the code book that encodes a second set of information bits. This procedure may continue until all information bits have been transmitted successfully.

A first error-detecting code (EDC) is computed based on a first segment of a block of information that is to be encoded, and a second EDC is computed based on at least a second segment of the block of information. The first EDC is masked with a first masking segment and the second EDC with a second masking segment to generate a first masked EDC and a second masked EDC. The first masking segment and the second masking segment are associated with a target receiver of the block of information. A codeword is generated based on a code and an input vector that includes the first segment, the first masked EDC, the second segment, and the second masked EDC. This type of coding could be useful to support early termination of blind detection at a decoder, for example.

In one implementation, a receiver has a module to calculate the cross-correlation between a portion of a digital representation of a received signal and a reference signal. The receiver also has a module to generate an estimate of a portion of a message potentially included in the digital representation of the received signal and a screening module to determine the likelihood that the received signal includes a message. For a received signal that is determined likely to include a message, the receiver includes a carrier refinement module to shift the frequency of carrier pulses in the digital representation of the received signal toward a desired frequency and to align the phase of carrier pulses in the digital representation of the received signal with a desired phase and a coherent matched filter to recover the message from the digital representation of the received signal.
