Abstract
A method and an apparatus are provided for decoding a polar code. A simplified successive cancellation list (SSCL) decoding tree for the polar code is generated. The SSCL decoding tree includes a plurality of nodes. One or more nodes of the plurality of nodes are identified as employing Reed-Muller codes for decoding. Decoding of received log-likelihood ratios (LLRs) is performed using Reed-Muller codes at the one or more nodes. Hard decision values are output from the one or more nodes.
