Abstract Recently, polar code has attracted the attention of many scholars and has been developed as a code technology in coded‐cooperative communication. We propose a polar code scheme based on Plotkin structure and quasi‐uniform punching (PC‐QUP). Then we apply the PC‐QUP to coded‐cooperative scenario and built to a new coded‐cooperative scheme, which is called PCC‐QUP scheme. The coded‐cooperative scheme based on polar code is studied on the aspects of codeword construction and performance optimization. Further, we apply the proposed schemes to space–time block coding (STBC) to explore the performance of the scheme. Monte Carlo simulation results show that the proposed cooperative PCC‐QUP‐STBC scheme can obtain a lower bit error ratio (BER) than its corresponding noncooperative scheme.
