A hybrid construction of a polarization-adjusted convolutional code for wireless communication

An apparatus for wireless communication at a wireless communication device, comprising:

• a processor;
• and
• memory coupled with the processor and storing instructions executable by the processor to cause the apparatus to:
• encode a set of information bits in accordance with a plurality of weighted metrics, each respective weighted metric of the plurality of weighted metrics being associated with a respective sub-channel of a plurality of sub-channels, a first weighted metric of the plurality of weighted metrics being further associated with a first index of a first sequence, a second index of a second sequence, and a scaling value;
• and
• transmit, via a set of sub-channels comprising at least some of the plurality of sub-channels, a message in accordance with encoding the set of information bits in accordance with the plurality of weighted metrics.
