    摘要: Provided is a dynamic method for asymmetry compensation in a storage read channel. An asymmetry cancellation component in communication with an analog-to-digital converter receives an analog signal representing data read from a storage medium by a read head. The asymmetry cancellation component receives a digital signal from the analog-to-digital converter representing data read from the storage medium and computes an error signal indicating an asymmetry in the digital signal. The computed error signal is used to determine a coefficient. The digital signal is adjusted using the coefficient to produce a corrected digital signal.

    摘要: A read channel equalizer of a magnetic tape drive which equalized digitally sampled magnetic signals detected by a read head is dynamically adapted. A detector of equalizer dynamic adaptation logic compares equalizer output signals to desired values that are based on the decoding scheme (such as +2, 0 and −2 for PR4) to sense equalizer output signals that are offset from at least one desired value, and signals the fact of each offset and it polarity as amplitude independent error signals. The signaled sensed amplitude independent error signals are fed back to adjustable taps of the equalizer. The simplified error signals thus avoid complex calculations of waveform errors, such as least mean square calculations. The error signals may be weighted and may be adjusted to align synchronously provided error signals with asynchronous taps of the equalizer.
