Polarization adjusted convolutional (PAC) codes are a class of codes that combine channel polarization with convolutional coding. PAC codes are of interest for their high performance. This paper presents a systematic encoding and shortening method for PAC codes. Systematic encoding is important for lowering the bit-error rate (BER) of PAC codes. Shortening is important for adjusting the block length of PAC codes. It is shown that systematic encoding and shortening of PAC codes can be carried out in a unified framework.
极化调整卷积(PAC)码是一类将信道极化与卷积编码相结合的码。PAC码因其高性能而备受关注。本文提出了一种PAC码的系统编码和缩短方法。系统编码对于降低PAC码的误码率(BER)很重要。缩短对于调整PAC码的码长很重要。结果表明,PAC码的系统编码和缩短可以在一个统一的框架内进行。
