I understand you are facing an error while using the "nrPolarEncode" function.
The syntax for the "nrPolarEncode" function is as follows-
enc = nrPolarEncode(in,E)
The function takes input arguments 'in' which is Input message, specified as a column vector of binary values and 'E' which is Rate-matched output length in bits, specified as a positive integer and returns the polar-encoded output for the input message in and rate-matched output length E.
In your case 'in' input argument is variable 'N' which is not a column vector of binary values that is the reason the error is being thrown. Please ensure that a column vector of binary values is used for 'in' input argument to "nrPolarEncode" function.
Refer to the following MATLAB documentation for more information-
