Abstract
- In this paper, we provide an analysis of the performance of concatenation of polar codes with outer cyclic redundancy check (CRC) codes, separated by an interleaver, in the short and moderate block length regimes. The analysis addresses maximum likelihood decoding as a proxy to the code performance under successive cancellation list decoding. The analysis is carried out by introducing the concatenated polar code (CPC) ensembles, whose distance properties can be analyzed (for sufficiently short block lengths) by means of the uniform interleaver approach. At moderate block lengths, we resort to the Monte Carlo simulations. Results show that if the inner polar code possesses a low minimum distance and the outer CRC code has a sufficiently large amount of redundancy, then the choice of the outer code generator polynomial and the interleaver may yield to a large variability in the performance of the resulting CPC.
