Summary:Compared with SC decoding, BP decoding with the parallel mechanism has higher throughput and lower latency, which is more suitable for the demand of 5G scene. To further improve its FER performance and reduce the memory overhead, a recurrent neural network-aided bit-flipping BP decoding of polar codes is proposed. Firstly, it uses bit flip to correct the wrong decoded bits during the decoding iteration. And then, the offset min-sum approximation is used to replace multiplication operation. Lastly the improved recurrent neural network architecture is adopted to realize parameter sharing. The simulation shows that the proposed scheme has a better error correction ability with fewer flipping times, and can effectively reduce the computational resource consumption and extra memory overhead of BP decoding.
