Abstract

A method, apparatus, and chipset are provided for constructing hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ) rate-compatible polar codes for communication channels. The method includes constructing, in a terminal, a base polar code of length 2n; and determining a sequence of m<2n bits to puncture in the base polar code by testing a predetermined criterion at most (22n+2n)/2−1 times.
