Description

Polar code decoding method, device, equipment and readable storage medium
Technical Field
The present invention relates to the field of communications technologies, and in particular, to a Polar code decoding method, apparatus, device, and readable storage medium.
Background
Polar code is a channel coding based on channel polarization theory, and a Successive Cancellation (SC) decoding algorithm is a decoding algorithm unique to Polar code provided aiming at the structure of Polar code. Under SC algorithm, the Polar code is obtained through strict mathematical demonstration, and can be transmitted under B-DMC channel without error. Meanwhile, the SC decoding algorithm has a low computational complexity, which is only O (NlogN). However, in practical situations, the code length cannot be "long enough", and once an erroneous bit decision occurs, due to the nature of sequential decoding, the erroneous bit has no chance to be corrected, so the decoding performance of the SC decoding algorithm is poor.
Therefore, aiming at medium and short code lengths, an improved algorithm based on the SC decoding algorithm becomes a research hotspot of Polar code decoding, and a series of algorithms are proposed by many scholars to improve the SC decoding performance of Polar codes. SC-List (SCL) coding techniques are capable of obtaining the best maximum likelihood (ml) performance with a sufficiently large List size. Although SCL decoding has superior performance, it has high computational complexity, large memory requirements, and low decoding throughput. Recent researchers have proposed SC Stack (SCs) decoding algorithms that have computational complexity very close to SC decoding algorithms at high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), with lower decoding complexity than SCL decoding. Meanwhile, an improved Polar code path metric and an effective stack decoding algorithm are provided, SCS decoding needs larger space complexity, and when the size of a stack is smaller, the performance is slightly poor. Another low complexity solution is SC-flip (SCF) decoding, where an SC decoding failure (detected by CRC check) attempts to identify and flip the first bit error that occurred during the previous decoding, further attempts until the decoding passes CRC check, or the maximum number of attempts is reached. Combining Fano sequential decoding properly into standard SC decoding, an alternative improvement of SC decoding is proposed, which at each decoding stage decides whether to move forward or backward along the current path to find more likelihood paths, which may overcome the main drawbacks of SC decoding. However, due to the lack of a complete mathematical characterization, the optimal flipping strategy (flipping bit) remains an open problem.
In summary, how to effectively improve the decoding performance of Polar codes is a technical problem that needs to be solved by those skilled in the art.

Detailed Description
In order that those skilled in the art will better understand the disclosure, the invention will be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It is to be understood that the described embodiments are merely exemplary of the invention, and not restrictive of the full scope of the invention. All other embodiments, which can be derived by a person skilled in the art from the embodiments given herein without making any creative effort, shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
Referring to FIG. 1, FIG. 1 is a flowchart illustrating a Polar code decoding method according to an embodiment of the present invention.
In order to make those skilled in the art better understand the Polar code decoding method provided by the embodiment of the present invention, the following explains the core idea and related principles of the method.
First, the presence of noise is undesirable in a communication system because the noise can corrupt the transmitted information so that it is not recoverable at the receiver. It has been found, however, that the reception of a signal (i.e. a channel reception sequence,i.e., the sequence of codewords received by the channel) adds corresponding perturbation noise to the decoding process. Specifically, referring to fig. 2, fig. 2 shows the relationship between the received code words of the channel and the associated error correction regions. In fig. 2, different error correction regions a ═ of M valid codewords are defined (a ═1,a2,...,am). For and error correction area a2And if the channel received signal y falls within the error correction area, no decoding error occurs, and if the channel received signal y falls outside the error correction area, a decoding error occurs. As can be seen from fig. 2, the disturbance noise n can shift the channel reception signal y to the correct error correction region. Assuming that relatively few errors occur, the channel received signal y is likely to be close to its designated error correction region. The phenomenon of stochastic resonance, i.e. the enhancement of the signal by adding random independent noise, may explain this beneficial effect of disturbing noise.
The specific implementation process comprises the following steps:
s101, acquiring a channel receiving sequence with decoding failure.
The three elements of the communication system are: a source (i.e., originating device, sender), a sink (receiving device, receiver), and a channel (transmission medium). In this embodiment, at the transmitting end, the information bits u with length K are encoded into a binary Polar code X with length N by adding CRC redundancy and Polar code encoder, the codeword X is mapped to the symbol vector S by BPSK modulation, and the BPSK signal is transmitted through a channel with additive noise.
Specifically, before executing step S101, the method includes:
step one, decoding a channel receiving sequence by using an SC decoder to obtain an information estimation value;
performing CRC on the information estimation value;
step three, if the verification is successful, determining the information estimation value as a decoding result;
and step four, if the check fails, determining that the decoding of the channel receiving sequence fails.
For convenience of description, the above four steps will be described in combination.
At the receiving end, the received information y may be represented by equation (1):
y=s+n (1)
referring to fig. 3, the SC decoder is first used to decode the channel received sequence y, and the information estimation value is obtained by the decision of equation (2):
Figure BDA0002428926380000061
wherein h isiFor the decision function, the following equation (3) is defined:
Figure BDA0002428926380000062
in the decoding process, the ratio of transition probabilities is defined as Likelihood Ratio (LR), i.e. likelihood information, i.e. LR of a single bit:
Figure BDA0002428926380000063
the iterative calculation formula of LR is shown in equations (5) and (6):

Figure BDA0002428926380000068
Figure BDA0002428926380000069
If the information estimation value passes through CRC check, the decoding is successful, and a decoding result is output; if the information estimation value fails CRC, the decoding failure is indicated.
After the decoding fails, the channel receiving sequence may be used as a processing object, that is, the channel receiving sequence corresponding to step S101 is obtained.
And S102, generating disturbance noise matched with the channel receiving sequence.
The disturbing noise interferes with the channel reception sequence, and may cause the channel reception sequence to move to an error correction region. In order to enable the channel receiving sequence to be decoded effectively, when the disturbance noise is generated, the generation may be performed based on the channel receiving sequence, for example, the disturbance noise matched with the characteristics of the channel receiving sequence is generated.
Preferably, in order to further improve the effect of the disturbance noise on decoding, the neural network (CNN) learning capability can be further utilized to obtain the disturbance noise capable of shifting the channel receiving sequence to the correct error correction region through training. That is, the disturbance noise matched with the channel receiving sequence is generated, specifically, the channel receiving sequence is input to a trained neural network, and the output of the neural network is used as the disturbance noise. That is, the channel reception sequence is characterized by CNN, and disturbance noise is generated.
The training process of the neural network comprises the following steps:
stage one: generating a database with known samples; wherein each known sample comprises a neural network input and a neural network output, the neural network output being a perturbation noise that enables the neural network input to be correctly decoded;
and a second stage: and training the neural network by using the database until the loss value corresponding to the neural network reaches a preset threshold value.
Preferably, in order to further optimize the neural network, the database is also updated in the iterative training of the neural network.
The neural network extracts the characteristics of input data from the bottom layer to the high layer step by utilizing a layered model structure similar to the human brain, and a mapping relation is established between a bottom layer signal and high-layer semantics.
The training quality is affected by some hyper-parameters, such as the size of the training set, small batch size, etc., but in this embodiment, it is possible to select only one set of valid hyper-parameters without paying attention to the optimization of these hyper-parameters. For example, the parameters shown in the following table may be used:
CNN structure {4;9,3,3,5;64,32,16,1}
Mini-batch size 500
Amount of training data 700000
Amount of test data 200000
SNR for generating data {0,0.5,1,1.5,2,2.5,3,3.5,4}dB
Initialization method Xavier
Optimization method Adam
The training neural network is divided into two stages to train the neural network, and the whole training process is finished off line, so that the complexity of decoding cannot be increased. A normality test of the loss function is used to measure the probability of the received value in decoding the error correction space, and the calculation of the likelihood information is facilitated later. The loss function is defined as:
Figure BDA0002428926380000081
wherein skewness S and kurtosis K are defined as follows:
Figure BDA0002428926380000082
wherein n isiRepresents the ith element, n 'in the true noise vector'iIs the ith element of the CNN output vector,
Figure BDA0002428926380000083
the mean of the samples is indicated. Through simulation experiments, the loss function can provide a very ideal training output. The smaller the loss value calculated by the loss function, the more similar the actual neural network output is to the expected network output, which means better training of the network.
In the first training phase a database is generated in which the noise of each sample is known. Specifically, each sample in the database includes y (as an input to the neural network), i.e., the channel receive sequence, and perturbation noise (as an expected output of the neural network) that enables it to be correctly decoded.
Firstly, a large amount of simulation can be carried out, Polar codes are used for coding random information bits, then, noise BPSK symbols are decoded by SC, if CRC (cyclic redundancy check) cannot be passed, decoding failure is indicated, and disturbance noise needs to be added. In this case, y and the perturbation noise (taking the negative of the added random noise) that can be made to revert back to the decoded error correction region can be stored as a known sample.
The neural network is then trained using the training data to minimize the loss function. To properly train the network, the known samples in the database can be divided into two groups: training set and validation set. The training set is used to train the network, while the validation set is used to avoid overfitting.
Considering the situation that the decoding still fails after adding the disturbance noise, the iteration is carried out circularly, the disturbance noise is added repeatedly, the first stage is untrained, and the neural network is trained further to output the correct disturbance noise on the basis of the last disturbance noise. To solve this problem, CNN continues to be trained in the second phase, as shown in fig. 4. In each iteration, a new database is generated based on the CNN. The neural network is then trained using reinforcement learning based on the new database.
The input of the CNN is a channel receiving value, that is, a channel receiving sequence, which is a one-dimensional vector, a rapid start Sequential (Sequential) model in a keras library is available, the number of convolution kernels of the first layer of the network is 64, the size of the convolution kernels is 9, and the convolution mode is selected to be same, so that the output of the first layer is 64 columns and n rows. Similarly, the number of convolution kernels in the second layer is 32, the size of the convolution kernels is 3, the number of convolution kernels in the third layer is 16, the size of the convolution kernels is 3, the number of convolution kernels in the fourth layer is 1, and the size of the convolution kernels is 15. The activation function of the first three layers is RELU, and the activation function of the fourth layer is linear, so that after the four-layer network is passed, the output result of CNN is ideal disturbance noise.
And S103, correcting likelihood information of the channel receiving sequence by using the disturbance noise.
Specifically, the process for correcting the likelihood information includes:
acquiring the deviation degree of a channel receiving sequence relative to a decoding error correction area after disturbance noise is added;
and step two, correcting the likelihood information of the channel receiving sequence by using the deviation degree.
Specifically, the LR is then modified according to the added disturbance noise,

wherein p is0,iAnd p1,iThe probability that the ith element of y' is-1 or 1. The calculation formula is as follows,

And S104, decoding the channel receiving sequence by using the corrected likelihood information.
Specifically, the updated likelihood information is input to the SC decoder to decode the channel received sequence.
Decoding the channel received sequence using the modified likelihood information, comprising:
inputting likelihood information into an SC decoder, and decoding a channel receiving sequence by using the decoder to obtain an information estimation value;
performing CRC on the information estimation value;
step three, if the verification is successful, taking the information estimation value as a decoding result;
step four, if the check fails, judging whether the iterative decoding times reach an iterative threshold value; if not, repeatedly executing the step of generating the disturbance noise matched with the channel receiving sequence; if so, stopping iterative decoding.
Inputting the updated likelihood information into SC decoder to obtain information estimation value
Figure BDA0002428926380000103
And judging whether the decoding is successful or not, and if the decoding is failed, repeatedly adding disturbance noise until the decoding is successful or the maximum iteration number is reached. The more the iteration times, the better the decoding performance, and the decoding time delay is increased. The basis is to ensure the lowest decoding delay while obtaining better decoding performance. For example, the maximum number of iterations may be set to a value of 10, 20, etc.
In particular, the process of decoding based on the likelihood information after correction may refer to a process of decoding using likelihood information before correction.
In order to understand the relationship between decoding using likelihood information before correction and decoding using likelihood information after correction, please refer to fig. 3, and the decoding process will be described in detail from the received signal.
Step 1, carrying out serial offset decoding on the channel receiving sequence to obtain an information estimation value.
And 2, performing CRC (cyclic redundancy check) on the information estimation value, if the information estimation value passes the CRC, proving that the decoding is successful, and outputting decoding information (namely outputting the information estimation value as a decoding result), otherwise, performing the step 3.
Step 3, judging whether the maximum iteration times is reached, and if so, terminating iterative decoding; otherwise, inputting the decoding failure sequence into the trained neural network, and then outputting the disturbance noise which can enable the decoding failure sequence to move to the decoding error correction area by CNN and storing the disturbance noise.
And 4, correcting and storing the LR value of the decoding failure sequence according to the added disturbance noise.
And 5, carrying out SC decoding according to the updated LR to obtain an information estimation value, and turning to the step 2 to carry out CRC.
By applying the method provided by the embodiment of the invention, a channel receiving sequence with decoding failure is obtained; generating disturbance noise matched with a channel receiving sequence; correcting likelihood information of a channel receiving sequence by using the disturbance noise; and decoding the channel receiving sequence by using the corrected likelihood information.
It is considered that, assuming that relatively few errors occur, the channel reception sequence (i.e., the reception signal) is likely to be close to a certain error correction region, and if the channel reception sequence falls within the error correction region, no decoding error occurs. Therefore, only the channel receiving sequence with decoding failure needs to be shifted to the error correction area, so that the decoding error can be avoided and the decoding success rate can be improved. In the method, the channel receiving sequence with failed decoding can be shifted to an error correction region based on the stochastic resonance phenomenon by generating the disturbance noise corresponding to the channel receiving sequence with failed decoding. That is, after the disturbance noise is obtained, the likelihood information of the corresponding channel receiving sequence can be corrected by using the disturbance noise, and then the channel receiving sequence is decoded by following the likelihood information. Therefore, in the method, even if the decoding fails, the decoding can be carried out by generating the corresponding disturbance noise improvement, so that the decoding success rate can be improved.

It is considered that, assuming that relatively few errors occur, the channel reception sequence (i.e., the reception signal) is likely to be close to a certain error correction region, and if the channel reception sequence falls within the error correction region, no decoding error occurs.
