Polar code is a class of linear error-correcting codes that may demonstrably achieve the capacity of discrete memoryless channels. In the last decade, they have piqued the interest of industry and academia, such as the 5G (5th generation) wireless communication system standardization process. Although polar codes are proven to achieve the Shannon limit, their performance degrades at finite-code lengths, particularly in low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) environments. So in a regime with finite _length, the performance of polar code may be improved by several techniques, such as Turbo Polar Codes (TPCs). Various Soft_in_Soft_out (SISO) decoder techniques, such as soft_cancellation (SCAN), belief_propagation (BP), and soft_successive_cancellation_list (SSCL) can be utilized in TPC. On the other hand, using a simple scaling factor scheme to minimize the overestimation of extrinsic information and its correlation with intrinsic information can further improve performance. Different termination techniques are proposed in the literature to reduce the required number of iterations, especially at high SNR. Error detection and correction systems are utilised to reduce energy consumption. This paper reviews some of the recent decoding techniques used in TPC. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
