Computing the Low-Weight codewords of Punctured and Shortened Pre-Transformed polar Codes
Abstract
In this paper, we present a deterministic algorithm to count the low-weight codewords of punctured and shortened pure and pre-transformed polar codes. The method first evaluates the weight properties of punctured/shortened polar cosets. Then, a method that discards the cosets that have no impact on the computation of the low-weight codewords is introduced.
A key advantage of this method is its applicability, regardless of the frozen bit set, puncturing/shortening pattern, or pretransformation. Results confirm the method's efficiency while showing reduced computational complexity compared to stateof-the-art algorithms.
