A number K of N sub-channels that are defined by a code and that have associated reliabilities for input bits at N input bit positions, are to be selected to carry bits that are to be encoded. A localization area that includes multiple sub-channels and is located below fewer than K of the N sub-channels in a partial order of the N sub-channels is determined based on one or more coding parameters. The fewer than K sub-channels of the N sub-channels above the localization area in the partial order are selected, and a number of sub-channels from those in the localization area are also selected. The selected fewer than K sub-channels and the number of sub-channels selected from those in the localization area together include K sub-channels to carry the bits that are to be encoded.
