Abstract

Apparatus and methods are provided for polar code sub-block interleaving and bit selection. In one novel aspect, middle-part interlaced sub-block interleaving is provided for polar code interleaving. In one embodiment, the middle part of the polar code is interlaced and generates the interleaved polar code. In another embodiment, the lower part and the upper part are also sub-block interleaved with the middle-part interlaced method. In another novel, rate-dependent unified bit selection is provided. The bit selection is categorized into three operation categories of repetition, puncturing and the shortening. Each category follows unified bit selection rule with different categories differ only in the access scheme. In one embodiment, the circular buffer is used for bit selection.
