Claim 10:
11. A radio node, comprising:
a Polar encoder operable to perform Polar encoding of a plurality of bits to provide a plurality of Polar-encoded code bits; and
circuitry associated with the Polar encoder that is operable to:
re-order the plurality of Polar-encoded code bits to provide a plurality of re-ordered Polar-encoded code bits;
store the plurality of re-ordered Polar-encoded code bits in a circular buffer or linear buffer;
extract 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
extract 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.
