We prove that, for the binary erasure channel (BEC), the polar-coding paradigm gives rise to codes that not only approach the Shannon limit but do so under the best possible scaling of their block length as a~function of the gap to…
Polar codes, introduced by Arikan, achieve the capacity of arbitrary binary-input discrete memoryless channel $W$ under successive cancellation decoding. Any such channel having capacity $I(W)$ and for any coding scheme allowing…
Polar codes that approach capacity at a near-optimal speed, namely with scaling exponents close to $2$, have been shown possible for $q$-ary erasure channels (Pfister and Urbanke), the BEC (Fazeli, Hassani, Mondelli, and Vardy), all BMS…
Polarization is an unprecedented coding technique in that it not only achieves channel capacity, but also does so at a faster speed of convergence than any other coding technique. This speed is measured by the ``scaling exponent'' and its…
Polar codes were recently introduced by Ar\i kan. They achieve the capacity of arbitrary symmetric binary-input discrete memoryless channels under a low complexity successive cancellation decoding strategy. The original polar code…
This paper investigates the scaling exponent of polar codes for binary-input energy-harvesting (EH) channels with infinite-capacity batteries. The EH process is characterized by a sequence of i.i.d. random variables with finite variances.…
The polarization process of conventional polar codes in binary erasure channel (BEC) is recast to the Domany-Kinzel cellular automaton model of directed percolation in a tilted square lattice. Consequently, the former's scaling exponent,…
A family of polarizing kernels is presented together with polynomial-complexity algorithm for computing scaling exponent. The proposed convolutional polar kernels are based on convolutional polar codes, also known as b-MERA codes. For these…
In this paper, code decompositions (a.k.a. code nestings) are used to design binary polarization kernels. The proposed kernels are in general non-linear. They provide a better polarization exponent than the previously known kernels of the…
In this paper, we leverage polar codes and the well-established channel polarization to design capacity-achieving codes with a certain constraint on the weights of all the columns in the generator matrix (GM) while having a low-complexity…
In this paper, we modify polar codes constructed with some 2^t x 2^t polarization kernels to reduce the time complexity of the window decoding. This modification is based on the permutation of the columns of the kernels. This method is…
Code decompositions (a.k.a code nestings) are used to design good binary polar code kernels. The proposed kernels are in general non-linear and show a better rate of polarization under successive cancelation decoding, than the ones…
In this paper, we focus on the design of binary constant weight codes that admit low-complexity encoding and decoding algorithms, and that have a size $M=2^k$. For every integer $\ell \geq 3$, we construct a $(n=2^\ell, M=2^{k_{\ell}},…
It is known that polar codes can be efficiently constructed for binary-input channels. At the same time, existing algorithms for general input alphabets are less practical because of high complexity. We address the construction problem for…
Consider the transmission of a polar code of block length $N$ and rate $R$ over a binary memoryless symmetric channel $W$ and let $P_e$ be the block error probability under successive cancellation decoding. In this paper, we develop new…
A shortening method for large polarization kernels is presented, which results in shortened kernels with the highest error exponent if applied to kernels of size up to 32. It uses lower and upper bounds on partial distances for quick…
Polar codes have received increasing attention in the past decade, and have been selected for the next generation of wireless communication standard. Most research on polar codes has focused on codes constructed from a $2\times2$…
We consider the problem of coded distributed computing using polar codes. The average execution time of a coded computing system is related to the error probability for transmission over the binary erasure channel in recent work by…
In 2008 Arikan proposed polar coding [arXiv:0807.3917] which we summarize as follows: (a) From the root channel $W$ synthesize recursively a series of channels $W_N^{(1)},\dotsc,W_N^{(N)}$. (b) Select sophisticatedly a subset $A$ of…
In this paper, we investigate a novel family of polar codes based on multi-kernel constructions, proving that this construction actually polarizes. To this end, we derive a new and more general proof of polarization, which gives sufficient…
