Abstract

Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described for mutual information based polar code construction. A wireless device may receive a codeword over a wireless channel, the codeword encoded using a polar code. The wireless device may identify a set of bit locations of the polar code corresponding to information bits of an encoded information bit vector. The set of bit locations may be determined based at least in part on a reliability order of the bit locations of the polar code, and the reliability order may be determined based at least in part on a recursive model that includes at least one mutual information transfer function that is applied at each polarization stage of multiple polarization stages of the polar code. The wireless device may decode the received codeword to obtain the information bit vector at the set of bit locations.
