Probabilistic Shaping Using 5G New Radio Polar Codes

An extension to the 5G New Radio polar coding chain is proposed by introducing a shaping encoder prior to the polar encoder that improves the performance with higher order modulation via probabilistic shaping. The method is based on attaching shaping bits to the data bits that force the resulting ch...
