  • Publication number: 20240137153
    Abstract: A device may receive a PDCCH signal, may decode encoded bits of the PDCCH signal to generate coded bits, may reencode the coded bits, and may calculate a detection error probability of each coded bit at an output of soft demodulation. The device may calculate a channel decoding error probability that cyclic redundancy check bits are still attached to the coded bits, and may calculate an error probability of channel reencoding, of each coded bit, due to error propagation of polar decoding and reencoding. The device may calculate a probability density of a BMR associated with the coded bits, and may calculate a threshold based on the detection error probability, the channel decoding error probability, the error probability of channel reencoding, and the probability density of a BMR. The device may determine that the PDCCH signal is invalid based on the BMR being greater than the threshold.
