From Polar to Reed-Muller Codes: a Technique to Improve the Finite-Length Performance

Rüdiger Urbanke, Seyed Hamed Hassani, Marco Mondelli

We explore the relationship between polar and RM codes and we describe a coding scheme which improves upon the performance of the standard polar code at practical block lengths. Our starting point is the experimental observation that RM codes have a smalle ...

Finite-Length Scaling for Polar Codes

Rüdiger Urbanke, Seyed Hamed Hassani

Consider a binary-input memoryless output-symmetric channel W. Such a channel has a capacity, call it I (W), and for any R < I (W) and strictly positive constant P-e we know that we can construct a coding scheme that allows transmission at rate R with an e ...

Polarization Theorems for Arbitrary DMCs

Emre Telatar, Rajai Nasser

A polarization phenomenon in a special sense is shown for an arbitrary discrete memoryless channel (DMC) by imposing a quasigroup structure on the input alphabet. The same technique is used to derive a polarization theorem for an arbitrary multiple access ...

Rate-Dependent Analysis of the Asymptotic Behavior of Channel Polarization

Rüdiger Urbanke, Seyed Hamed Hassani

We consider the asymptotic behavior of the polarization process in the large block-length regime when transmission takes place over a binary-input memoryless symmetric channel W. In particular, we study the asymptotics of the cumulative distribution, P(Z(n ...

Iterative Coding for Network Coding

Rüdiger Urbanke, Andrea Montanari

We consider communication over a noisy network under randomized linear network coding. Possible error mechanisms include node-or link-failures, Byzantine behavior of nodes, or an overestimate of the network min-cut. Building on the work of Kotter and Kschi ...

Polarization and Spatial Coupling

Seyed Hamed Hassani

During the last two decades we have witnessed considerable activity in building bridges between the fields of information theory/communications, computer science, and statistical physics. This is due to the realization that many fundamental concepts and no ...

Polar Codes for the Two-User Multiple-Access Channel

Emre Telatar, Eren Sasoglu

Arikan's polar coding method is extended to two-user multiple-access channels. It is shown that if the two users of the channel use Arikan's construction, the resulting channels will polarize to one of five possible extremals, on each of which uncoded tran ...

Conditions for Robustness of Polar Codes in the Presence of Channel Mismatch

Mine Alsan

A challenging problem related to the design of polar codes is "robustness against channel parameter variations'', as stated in Arıkan's original work. In this paper, we describe how the problem of robust polar code design can be viewed as a mismatch decodi ...

Polar Codes: Finite Length Implementation, Error Correlations and Multilevel Modulation

Shannon, in his seminal work, formalized the transmission of data over a communication channel and determined its fundamental limits. He characterized the relation between communication rate and error probability and showed that as long as the communicatio ...
