摘要:
A data recording and reproducing device with a small circuit size is provided that utilizes an iterative decoding technique to realize high-speed data reproduction from a recording medium on which data is recorded at a high density. This data recording and reproducing device records a data block having input data encoded with convolutional codes on a recording medium, reproduces the data block through a partial response channel, and decodes the data block from the reproduced signal, utilizing an iterative decoding technique by which the data block is decoded through iterative decoding using likelihood information. This data recording and reproducing device includes a dividing unit that divides the data block encoded with the convolutional codes into data sub blocks; and a recording unit that records the data sub blocks at non-adjacent locations on the recording medium.
摘要:
A small circuit-size data recording/reproduction device using repeated decoding for realizing high-speed data reproduction from a recording medium containing data recorded with a high density. In order to achieve this object, the data recording/reproducing device using repeated decoding records a data block in which input data is encoded by a convolution symbol on a recording medium, reproduces it via a partial response channel, and decodes the data block from the reproduction signal by using repeated decoding using likelihood information. The device includes means for dividing the data block encoded by the convolution symbol into a plurality of data sub-blocks and means for recording the data sub-blocks at positions not adjacent to each other on the recording medium.
