There are two main algorithms, successive cancellation (SC) algorithm and brief propagation (BP) algorithm, for decoding polar code. The SC algorithm has better error-correcting performance and the BP algorithm has low latency. The hybrid BP-SC decoding combines these two decoding algorithms and achieves improvements. Furthermore, the successive cancellation flip (SCF) algorithm improves the error-correcting performance for the SC algorithm, but it has higher computation complexity and latency. Based on the hybrid BP-SC decoding, we proposed a hybrid BP-SC/SCF decoding for polar codes in this paper to further improve the error-correcting performance. The result shows our approach outperforms to frame error rates (FER) of the SC decoding and BP decoding at least 0.5-dB and outperforms hybrid BP-SC decoding by 0.2-dB to 0.4-dB. Compared with the SCF decoding, the hybrid BPSC/SCF decoding has a small degradation of FER in a highquality channel but it significantly reduces the average computation complexity. |
