Hybrid Multi Kernel Polar Code Construction and Optimized Decoding Algorithm for 5G Mobile Communications

Abstract

5G mobile communications faces difficulty in channel coding to satisfy user requirements. This paper evaluates flexibility, reliability and complexity for different channel coding schemes(Turbo codes, Low Density Parity check codes, mother polar codes, Multi Kernel-polar codes) on regular channel AWGN with BPSK modulation of code rate R=1/2. The proposed hybrid Multi Kernel-polar codes will have greater flexibility and reliability for short and large code words. The optimized decoding of Multi Kernel polar codes reduces the number of computations by using repeated LLR’s of sub-kernel matrices.
