  • Publication number: 20220224358
    Abstract: A polar code decoding apparatus and an operation method thereof are provided. The polar code decoding apparatus includes a path expanding circuit and a node processing circuit. The path expanding circuit expands each of multiple previous paths corresponding to multiple previous decoding results into multiple candidate paths according to a current node. The path expanding circuit dynamically determines a path expanding number of the candidate paths of each of the previous paths according to an unreliable information bit number of the current node. The node processing circuit performs a path competition operation to select some paths from the candidate paths to serve as multiple current paths corresponding to multiple current decoding results.
