Adjusting m for polar codes rate matching design

An apparatus for wireless communications comprising:

• a processor configured to:
• iteratively determine a parameter, Madj, for construction of a polar code of size N for use in encoding K information bits, based on:
• at least two parameters, α and β, related to how many iterations to use in determining Madj, and
• a number of encoded bits, M;
• adjust an information bit allocation of the K information bits to an upper part and a lower part of the polar code based on Madj;
• and
• transmit a codeword via a wireless medium, wherein the codeword is generated using the polar code and the K information bits according to the allocation to the upper part and the lower part;
• a memory coupled with the processor.
