Claim 7:
8. A method of operation of a radio node that utilizes a Polar encoder, comprising:
performing Polar encoding of a plurality of bits to provide a plurality of Polar-encoded code bits;
re-ordering the plurality of Polar-encoded code bits to provide a plurality of re-ordered Polar-encoded code bits;
storing the plurality of re-ordered Polar-encoded code bits in a circular buffer or linear buffer;
extracting a first M bits from the circular buffer or the linear buffer as a plurality of rate-matched Polar-encoded code bits if a desired code rate for the plurality of rate-matched Polar-encoded code bits is within a first code rate region; and
extracting a second set of M bits from the circular buffer or the linear buffer as the plurality of rate-matched Polar-encoded code bits if the desired code rate for the plurality of rate-matched Polar-encoded code bits is within the second code rate region.
