摘要:
A wireless network can generate candidate signal configurations for physical transmissions to or from a user equipment (UE) in a radio environment. The generation of candidate signal configurations can be performed using a first neural network that is associated with the UE. These signal configurations can then be evaluated using a second neural network that is associated with the radio environment. The second neural network can be trained using measurements from previous physical transmissions in the radio environment. The trained second neural network generates a reward value that is associated with the candidate signal configurations. The first neural network is then trained using the reward values from the second neural network to produce improved candidate signal configurations. When a signal configuration that produces a suitable reward value is generated, this signal configuration can be used for the physical transmission in the radio environment.
摘要:
A codeword is generated based on a segmentation transform and a Polarization-Assisted Convolutional (PAC) code that includes an outer convolutional code and a polar code, and based on separate encoding of respective different segments of convolutionally encoded input bits according to the polar code. Each segment of the respective segments includes multiple bits of the convolutionally encoded input bits for which the separate encoding of the segment is independent of the separate encoding of other segments. Separate decoding may be applied to segments of such a codeword to decode convolutionally encoded input bits corresponding to the separately encoded segments of the convolutionally encoded input bits.
摘要:
In reduced-stage polar decoding, a received word that is based on an N-bit codeword of a polar code is decoded using fewer than log2N Log Likelihood Ratio (LLR) stages. Decoding uses a reduced stage decoding configuration. In an embodiment, such a configuration includes at least one higher-order LLR stage with nodes implementing functions that are based on a combination of lower-order polar code kernels.

Coding sub-channel selection involves, in an embodiment, determining, from sub-channels that are defined by a code and that have associated reliabilities for input bits at input bit positions, a first number of the sub-channels to carry bits that are to be encoded. A second number of the sub-channels, greater than the first number, are selected. The second number of sub-channels are selected to provide exactly the first number sub-channels to be available to carry the bits that are to be encoded.
摘要:
One or more codewords are generated by encoding input bits at input bit positions onto sub-channels that are provided by a code. Each of the sub-channels has an associated reliability of correct decoding of an input bit at an input bit position. Each codeword is transmitted to a decoder, and a word based on each transmitted codeword is received at the decoder. Each received word is decoded, and the reliabilities of the sub-channels are determined based on decoded bits and known input bits from which each codeword was generated. An indication that is based on the determined reliabilities of the sub-channels, such as an indication of the determined reliabilities, is transmitted to the encoder, and may be used by the encoder in selecting the sub-channels for encoding subsequent input bits, for example.
摘要:
A signature-enabled Polar code encoder and decoder are provided. Signature bits are inserted in some unreliable bit positions. Different signature bits are inserted for different receivers. For a given codeword, only the receiver with knowledge of the signature can decode the codeword. Cyclic redundancy check (CRC) bits may be included in the input vector to assist in decoding.
摘要:
Methods and devices are disclosed for receiving and decoding sparsely encoded data sequences using a message passing algorithm (MPA) or maximum likelihood sequence estimation (MLSE). Such data sequences may be used in wireless communications systems supporting multiple access, such as sparse code multiple access (SCMA) systems. The Methods and devices reduce the number of states in a search space for each received signal and associated function node based on a search threshold based on a characteristic related to the received signal and/or to a quality of a resource element over which the received signal is transmitted.
摘要:
A method for decoding tail-biting convolutional codes. The method includes initializing a correction depth, selecting a first starting state from a set of encoding states, and initializing a metric value for the selected starting state as zero and the other states as infinity. The input bit stream is read and a Search Depth Viterbi algorithm (SDVA) is performed to determine path metrics and identify a minimum-metric path. The ending state for the minimum-metric path is determined and the output for this ending state is identified as “previous output.” A second starting state is set to the ending state of the minimum-metric path, and symbols equal to the correction depth from the previous output are read. The SDVA is performed on the second set of read symbols to generate a corrected output. A decoded output is generated by replacing symbols at the beginning of the previous output with the corrected output.

摘要:
Methods and apparatuses for measuring a distance between two signal distributions in a common signal space are described. A measurement network is configured to receive first and second signal distributions as input and output a measurement of a Wasserstein distance between the first and second signal distributions. The measurement network may be implemented using a neural network.
