Abstract

Error correction coding is one of the most important things in wireless communication systems, where the fifth telecommunication generation (5G) New Radio (NR) uses Polar codes as channel coding scheme together with Low Density Parity Check (LDPC) codes. Polar codes are new efficient channel code having high performance with low computational complexity of encoding and decoding. Given the practical channel, the performances of Polar codes are depending on the channel quality. This paper investigates Bhattacharyya parameters as the parameter for selecting the frozen bits following the change of the channel quality. This paper considers Bhattacharyya parameters for short and long Polar codes based on Signal to Noise power Ratio (SNR) and compares Bit Error Rate (BER) performances of Polar codes under additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) and Rayleigh fading channels. The result are useful to design Polar codes for different SNR and information block lengths.
