This application provides a coding method and apparatus, and a device. The method includes: dividing, by a sending device, a subchannel location sequence number set into at least two mutually exclusive subsets based on an interleaving operation, where a subchannel location in each subset still belongs to the subset and does not belong to another subset after any quantity of interleaving operations are performed; determining, by the sending device, an information bit location set and a frozen bit location set of a to-be-coded polar polar code based on the at least two mutually exclusive subsets; and coding, by the sending device, the to-be-coded polar code based on the information bit location set and the frozen bit location set. The coding method and apparatus, and the device provided in this application can improve communication performance of polar coding.
