According to certain embodiments, a method by a transmitter is provided for adaptively generating precoder bits for a Polar code. The method includes acquiring at least one configuration parameter upon which a total number of precoder bits depends. The at least one configuration parameter comprising at least one of an information block length K, a code block length N, and/or a code rate R=K/N. The total number of precoder bits is determined, and the precoder bits for a code block are generated according to the determined total number of precoder bits. The precoder bits are placed within the code block.

Generating data checksum for a data object including multiple data units comprises, for each data unit, obtaining a corresponding address of the data unit, and rotating the data unit based on said corresponding address of the data unit to generate a rotated data unit. A checksum value for the data object is determined based on said rotated data units.

In one embodiment, the present invention includes a method for receiving incoming data in a processor and performing a checksum operation on the incoming data in the processor pursuant to a user-level instruction for the checksum operation. For example, a cyclic redundancy checksum may be computed in the processor itself responsive to the user-level instruction. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

A decoding apparatus and method. When all the code words in the to-be-decoded group meet that a checksum is 0, forward error correction (FEC) decoding is not performed, and only the sign bit decision is performed. That is, in a process of performing multiple times of decoding on each code word, FEC decoding is not always performed every time. This reduces power consumption required by FEC decoding.

The embodiments herein relate to a first user equipment (UE), a second UE and methods thereof for reliable group transmissions. The group includes multiple UEs transmitting the same Hybrid Automatic Repeat request (HARQ), buffer data packets to a network node. The method in the first UE includes receiving a predetermined number of Non ACKnowledgments (NACKs), performing a checksum calculation on the HARQ buffer, receiving a computed checksum from a second UE acting as a coordinator of the group; comparing the calculated checksum with the received computed checksum and stopping/refraining from further transmission of the HARQ buffer data to the network node when the calculated checksum and the received computed checksum differ.

A system and method are provided for verifying and reconstructing a file using cyclic redundancy checks (CRCs). A writer client sends a file, which includes data chunks including one or more data blocks, and code chunks including one or more code blocks. One or more storage devices store the packets underlying the one or more data blocks and their respective packet CRCs. A curator server stores a first CRC for each complete data chunk and each complete code chunk and determines that an incomplete code chunk has one or more missing code blocks. The curator server generates a second CRC for each of the complete data chunks and the complete code chunks using the packet CRCs, and compares the generated second CRCs with the respective stored first CRCs. The curator server generates a missing chunk CRC for the incomplete code chunk using the packet CRCs.

The present disclosure relates to a method and system for receiving a broadcast signal. The system includes a broadcast receiver device having two receiving units, two decoding units, a combining unit and a further processing unit. A broadcast signal is received by both receiving units, so that two reception signals are provided. From each reception signal, a raw data stream is extracted and decoded by the decoding units. It is checked if the data stream provided by each decoding unit is complete. If a first data stream is complete, it is processed by the further processing unit. If the first data stream is incomplete and the second data stream is complete, the second data stream is further processed. If both data streams are incomplete, they will be combined to a combined data stream by the combining unit, the combined data stream being further processed, if it is complete.

Systems and methods for Polar encoding with a blockwise checksum are provided. The method involves processing a set of K information blocks to produce a blockwise checksum with u blocks, where K>=2, and u>=1, and where each information block or checksum block contains P bits. The blockwise checksum may, for example, be a Fletcher checksum. The Polar code may be based on an m-fold Kronecker product matrix. Then, an N-bit input vector is produced with PK information bits and the Pu blockwise checksum bits, and with NPKPu frozen bits, where N=2.sup.m where m>=2. The N-bit input vector is processed to produce a result equivalent to multiplying the input vector by a Polar code generator matrix to produce a codeword. The codeword is then transmitted or stored.

A user station for a serial bus system. The user station includes a communication control device for controlling a communication of the user station with at least one other user station, and a transceiver device to serially transmit a transmission signal generated by the communication control device onto a bus and to serially receive signals from the bus. The communication control device generates the transmission signal according to a frame, and inserts a header check sum into the frame, only bits of a frame header that is situated in front of a data field provided for useful data in the frame being included in the computation. For computing the header check sum, the communication control device uses a predetermined starting value and a predetermined check sum polynomial.
