Abstract
A reduced complexity algorithm is presented for computing the log-likelihood ratios (LLRs) arising in the successive cancellation (SC) decoder for polar codes with large kernels of arbitrary dimension. The proposed algorithm exploits a recursive trellis representation of the codes generated by submatrices of the polarization kernel and enables polar codes based on large kernels to be decoded with lower complexity compared to the codes based on the Arıkan kernel with the same performance. Extensions to the case of non-binary kernels are presented.
