Claim 10:
11. A method for network decoding at a packet data convergence protocol (PDCP) layer by one or more processors of a user equipment (UE), the method comprising:
receiving a message comprising an encoded packet that includes a data unit, the message comprising a coding identifier indicating a vector of coding coefficients, wherein the vector of coding coefficients is based on a primitive element of a Vandermonde matrix, and wherein the coding identifier indicates one or more locations in the Vandermonde matrix; and
determining a coding coefficient value that is associated with the encoded packet based on the coding identifier;
decoding the encoded packet by applying a function based on the value of the coding coefficient, wherein applying the function comprises generating values for the coding coefficients of the Vandermonde matrix based on the coding identifier that indicates the one or more locations in the Vandermonde matrix.
