Interpretation of polar codes with Plotkin construction based on Gaussian approximation

Jinsoo Park, Inseon Kim, Hong‐Yeop Song · 2017

In this paper, we interpret the polar codes based on Plotkin construction perspective. We briefly review the rate allocation for component codes of Plotkin codes and the construction of polar codes based on Gaussian approximation. Then, we show that the recursively constructed Plotkin codes can be a class of polar codes. And also, the polar codes are a class of Plotkin code having minimum threshold.
