Hierarchical error correction code decoding using multistage concatenated codes

Hierarchical coding architectures and schemes based on multistage concatenated codes are described. For instance, multiple encoder and decoder hierarchies may be implemented along with use of corresponding stages of concatenated codes. The coding scheme generally includes an inner coding scheme (e.g., a polar coding scheme, such as a hybrid polar code or Bose Chaudhuri and Hocquenghem (BCH) code), an outer coding scheme (e.g., a Reed-Solomon (RS) coding scheme), and one or more middle coding schemes. The inner coding scheme is based on a polarization transformation (e.g., polar codes with cyclic redundancy check (CRC) codes, polar codes with dynamic freezing codes, polarization-adjusted convolutional (PAC) codes, etc.) which allows for embedding parity data from an outer code inside a codeword along with the user data. The outer coding scheme has a similar concatenated structure (e.g., of an inner RS code with an outer RS code).
