The successive cancellation (SC) process in which symbols are decoded sequentially by
processing some intermediate information is an essential component of various decoding …

In the successive cancellation (SC) list decoding, the tree pruning operation retains the L
best paths with respect to a metric at every decoding step. However, the correct path might …

The future 6G technology is envisioned to support ultra-reliable (BLER< 10− 6) and ultra-low
latency (< 1 ms) communications (URLLC). Achieving performance close to the maximum …

Polarization-adjusted convolutional (PAC) codes can approach the theoretical bound for
block error rate (BLER) performance at short-to-medium codeword length. PAC codes have …

This thesis focuses on improving list decoding of polar codes in terms of error correction
performance (by modified polar codes and shifted-pruning scheme) and the …

Successive cancellation (SC) process is an essential component of various decoding
algorithms used for polar codes and their variants. Rewinding this process seems trivial if we …

Error-correcting codes (codes) are the backbone of the modern information age and were
