Techniques for hybrid chase combining and incremental redundancy HARQ with polar codes

Abstract:

The present disclosure describes various examples of a method, an apparatus, and a computer-readable medium for wireless communications (e.g., 5G NR) using hybrid automatic repeat request (HARQ). For example, one of the methods includes generating a first codeword based on a first code block length, transmitting a first signal using the first codeword, generating a second codeword with incremental redundancy information based on a second code block length, generating a third codeword with repetition of at least a portion of the first codeword based on a third code block length, and transmitting a second signal using at least the second codeword or the third codeword.
