Polar Codes

Orhan Gazi is an Associate Professor at the Electronic and Communication Engineering Department, Cankaya University. He received his BS, MS and PhD degrees in Electrical and Electronics Engineering from Middle East Technical University, Ankara, Turkey, in 1996, 2001, and 2007 respectively. His research interests are chiefly in signal processing, information theory, and forward error correction. Most recently he has been studying polar channel codes and preparing publications in this area. Prof. Gazi has also authored several books on Signal Processing and Information Theory.

• Information Theory Perspective of Polar Codes and Polar Encoding.- Decoding of Polar Codes.- Channel Polarization of Binary Erasure Channels.- Mathematical Modelling of Polar Codes, Channel Combining and Splitting.- Polarization Rate and Performance of Polar Codes.

“The book is easy to read. It has numerous examples and exercise problems and hence can be used as a textbook on polar codes. I recommend it to engineers who want to learn about these powerful codes. … the book is still useful for many senior undergraduate and graduate students. I enjoyed reading the book.” (Manish Gupta, Computing Reviews, March 07, 2019)
