12 polar_channel_construction exposes functionality to calculate polar
13 channels for different sizes. It may be used to calculate Bhat‐
14 tacharyya parameters once and store them in a file in '~/.gnuradio/po‐
15 lar'. Frozen bit positions are recalculated on every run.

17 polar_channel_construction provides a command-line interface for all
18 the channel construction code. These features are also accessible via
19 the Polar Configurator block in GRC.

22 BEC channel construction can be calculated explicitly because the BEC
23 represents a special case which simplifies the task. All functionality
24 regarding this channel is located in 'channel_construction_bec'.

27 In general channel construction for polar codes is a very time consum‐
28 ing task. Tal and Vardy proposed a quantization algorithm for channel
29 construction which makes it feasible. The corresponding implementation
30 is located in 'channel_construction_awgn'. It should be noted that
31 this more of a baseline implementation which lacks all the advanced
32 features the original implementation provides. However, simulations
33 show that BEC channel construction with a design-SNR of 0.0dB yields
34 similar performance and should be preferred here.
