How we made Huawei Polar Coding solution be standardized in 5G New Radio

Polar codes have been at the origin, a pure academic topic where, for the first time, codes were invented that could achieve Shannon capacity at a low coding/decoding complexity. Ten years after their discovery by Erdal Arikan, the 5th generation wireless systems (5G) standardization process of the 3rd generation partnership project (3GPP) chose polar codes as a channel coding scheme. I will tell you the story of polar codes from Arikan’s invention to its standardization in 5G, essentially due to Huawei.
