Abstract
Belief propagation (BP) has attracted increasing attention due to its high parallelism. In this letter, a correction method is proposed to improve the block error rate (BLER) performance of the BP decoder for polar codes so that it is comparable to that of the successive cancellation list (SCL) decoder. Compared with BP flipping (BPF) decoding, the proposed decoder focuses on prior knowledge of the code bits in the factor graph. Two strategies have been proposed to construct the correction set. The simulation results show that the BPC decoder exhibits a BLER similar to that of BPF decoder while reducing the average latency and complexity by half. In addition, the BLER of the BPC decoder can approach that of the cyclic redundancy check (CRC)-aided SCL (CA-SCL) decoder in regions with low and medium signal-to-noise ratios (SNRs).
