Type: conference-paper
Abstract: Recently invented ABS+ polar codes provide substantially faster polarization than classical polar codes. We present the simplified version of SCL decoding for ABS+ polar codes that implements the idea of pruning of the recursion tree in the successive algorithm. The proposed fast simplified SCL (FSSCL) decoder provides better tradeoff between performance and arithmetic complexity than FSSCL decoder of classical polar codes. It also experiences lower latency in comparison with polar codes with large kernels under window processing (WP) based decoding while the performance and complexity are the same.
