    Abstract: Certain aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communications and, more particularly, to methods and apparatus for adjusting a number of encoded bits, M, in block puncturing and/or shortening calculations to improve encoding performance. An exemplary method that may be performed by a wireless device generally includes iteratively determining a parameter, Madj, for construction of a polar code of size N for use in encoding K information bits, based on: at least two parameters, α and β, related to how many iterations to use in determining Madj, and a number of encoded bits, M; performing information adjustment allocation of the K information bits to an upper part and a lower part of the polar code based on Madj; and transmitting the upper part and the lower part of the polar code via a wireless medium.

    Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure relate to rate-matching a stream of bits encoded using polar codes. An exemplary method generally includes determining a mother code size (N) for transmitting an encoded stream of bits based, at least in part, on a minimum supported code rate for transmitting the encoded stream of bits (Rmin), a control information size of the encoded stream of bits (K), a number of coded bits for transmission (E), and a maximum mother code size (Nmax), encoding a stream of bits using a polar code of size (N, K) and storing the encoded stream of bits in a circular buffer, and performing rate-matching on the stored encoded stream of bits based, at least in part, on a comparison among the mother code size (N), the control information size of the encoded stream of bits (K), and the number of coded bits for transmission (E).

    Abstract: A device may identify that an incremental redundancy hybrid automatic repeat request (IR-HARQ) scheme is used in association with sequential transmissions of an information bit vector to or from another wireless device, where each transmission in the scheme is associated with a resource size. The device may identify a mother code length for a polar code based at least in part on an aggregate resource size associated with the sequential transmissions. The device may identify an adjusted bit index set for the polar code based at least in part on the IR-HARQ scheme. The device may transmit (or receive), for each transmission of the information bit vector, a respective subset of encoded bits generated by mapping the information bit vector to a set of polarized bit channels of the polar code in accordance with the bit index set.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described for dynamic frozen bits of polar codes for early termination and performance improvement. A wireless device may receive a signal comprising a codeword encoded using a polar code. The wireless device may perform decoding of the codeword including at least: parity check of a first subset of decoding paths for making a decision on early termination of decoding of the codeword based on dynamic frozen bits, and generating path metrics for a second subset of the decoding paths that each pass the parity check based on the dynamic frozen bits, and performing error detection on a bit sequence corresponding to one of the second subset of the decoding paths based at part on error detection bits and the generated path metrics. The wireless device may process the information bits based on a result of the decoding.

    Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, a user equipment (UE) may receive an indicator, in a physical downlink control channel (PDCCH) payload, that indicates whether the PDCCH payload includes data or downlink control information (DCI) for obtaining the data, wherein the indicator is an initial state of a cyclic redundancy check that includes a predefined sequence of bits; and obtain at least one of the data or the DCI based at least in part on the indicator. Numerous other aspects are provided.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communications are described that provide for a location indicator transmission that may indicate a location of control channel resources that are to be monitored by a user equipment (UE) for control channel transmissions. A UE may receive the location indicator, and monitor the indicated control channel resources to receive downlink control information with an allocation of shared channel resources for the UE. The location indicator may include one or more parameters that allow a UE to receive the control channel transmissions according to a single decoding hypothesis. The location indicator may include one or more of a valid period of the location of the control channel transmissions, an interval at which control channel transmissions may be transmitted, an aggregation level used for the control channel transmissions, an index that identifies a first control channel element of the control channel transmissions, or combinations thereof.

    Abstract: Wireless devices may use polar codes for encoding transmissions and may support combining transmissions to improve decoding reliability (e.g., by achieving chase combining and incremental redundancy (IR) gains). For example, an encoding device may puncture a set of mother code bits using different puncturing patterns to obtain different redundancy versions for a first transmission and a re-transmission. Each puncturing pattern may correspond to an equivalent decoding performance. In some cases, to obtain equivalent puncture sets, the encoding device may perform punctured index manipulation procedures on an initial puncturing pattern. A punctured index manipulation procedure may involve switching a binary state for a binary bit at a same binary bit index for each puncture index in a puncturing pattern. A device may receive the transmissions generated using the equivalent puncture sets and may combine the information for improved decoding reliability.
