Techniques to provide a cyclic redundancy check for low density parity check code codewords

A device for wireless communication, comprising:

• a processor;
• memory coupled with the processor;
• and
• instructions stored in the memory and executable by the processor to cause the device to:
• segment a payload to be encoded into a plurality of code blocks;
• generate, for each code block, a cyclic redundancy check (CRC);
• associate the CRC generated for each code block with each respective code block;
• select low density parity check code (LDPCC) encoding based at least in part on at least one characteristic of the payload to be encoded;
• perform LDPCC encoding of each code block and associated CRC in one or more codewords of a plurality of codewords;
• and
• transmit the one or more codewords generated by performing the LDPCC encoding.

A non-transitory computer readable medium storing code for wireless communication, the code comprising instructions that, when executed by a processor, cause a wireless communication device to:

• segment a payload to be encoded into a plurality of code blocks;
• generate, for each code block, a cyclic redundancy check (CRC);
• associate the CRC generated for each code block with each respective code block;
• select low density parity check code (LDPCC) encoding based at least in part on at least one characteristic of the payload to be encoded;
• perform low density parity check code (LDPCC) encoding of each code block and associated CRC to generate one or more codewords of a plurality of codewords;
• and
• transmit the one or more codewords generated by performing the LDPCC encoding.
