摘要:
A method and an apparatus are provided for generating an (4,20) RLL modulation code having a decreased detectible window width and an increased recording density ratio. The code's spectrum is concentrated in the low-frequency band, thereby improving the signal-to-noise ratio. In addition, the hardware of an encoder and a decoder can be easily implemented since the modulation code has a fixed codeword length.

A method of generating parity data based on a low-density panty check matrix and an apparatus therefor, the method including: reordering columns of the parity check matrix based on elements in each column having values of one to generate a reordered parity check matrix; determining a cross-point between a diagonal line of a parity matrix part in the parity check matrix and a reordered diagonal line defined by a first entry of an element having a value of one in each column of the reordered parity check matrix; and performing column permutations on the reordered parity check matrix on the basis of positions of elements having a value of one in rows above a horizontal line that passes through the cross-point to generate a triangular matrix, thus reducing the computations required to generate parity data, thereby efficiently obtaining the parity data.

An apparatus, method, and an optical storage medium to generate an error correction block include a data block generation unit processing digital data on a byte-by-byte basis and arranging the processed digital data from 0th to (N−1)th columns and from 0th to (M−1)th rows to form (M×N) data blocks. A matrix block generation unit arranges the (M×N) data blocks in K rows according to a data transmission sequence to form a matrix block. A first codeword generation unit adds a first error correction check word of 2×K bytes to each of N columns to form a first codeword of ((K×M)+2×K) bytes. A second codeword generation unit adds a second error correction check word of P bytes to each of ((K×M)+2×K) rows to form a second codeword of (N+P) bytes.

A demodulation apparatus and method using a code table that decreases complexity. The demodulation apparatus includes a code table including a plurality of the code words, wherein similar ones of the code words are arranged to be grouped together; and a soft demodulator to calculate probabilities of individual bits that constitute the code words, and to generate a soft demodulation value of the data word.
摘要:
An optical recording medium, a data recording or reproducing apparatus, and a data recording or reproducing method used by the data recording or reproducing apparatus. In a method of recording data on an optical disc, each of a plurality of error correction code (ECC) blocks is divided into a plurality of partitions. Next, data from the partitions is interleaved so that each of the ECC blocks is alternately and equally selected to generate a recording block. The generated recording block is modulated and recorded on an optical disc. As a result, the optical recording medium, the data recording apparatus, and the data recording method used by the apparatus are compatible with the format of a conventional digital versatile disc (DVD) and have higher error correction rates. In a reproducing method, the recording block is deinterleaved.
摘要:
A decoding method and an apparatus operate by performing error correction on code words of an error correcting code block in one direction selected from a row direction and a column direction, indicating in error flags the remaining code words except at least some code words from code words having uncorrectable errors, and performing error correction on code words in the other direction based on the error flags. Accordingly, errors that have been conventionally considered as being uncorrectable may now be corrected.

An optical information recording medium, a data recording apparatus, a data recording method used by the recording apparatus, and a data reproducing apparatus are provided, in which the optical information recording medium includes data provided in one or more recording blocks. A recording block of the optical information recording medium is generated by alternately arranging identifiers from ones of error correction code (ECC) blocks in the recording block, wherein each ECC block comprises a plurality of sectors having corresponding identifiers.

An apparatus and method for recording and/or reproducing data on a disc are provided using padding information, and a corresponding information storage medium. The recording method includes recording a recording unit block in which invalid data is padded in part of the block and recording padding information indicating that the invalid data is included. According to the method, a disc drive becomes able to distinguish valid data from invalid data in an error correction block such that reliability of reproduction increases and stability of the system is improved.
摘要:
An optical recording medium storing information for regarding data in the current sector as data in a linking loss area, and an apparatus and method providing linking data. The data link method includes dividing an error correction code block having a predetermined size into a plurality of sectors and checking data type identification information which indicates whether or not data in each sector is linking data; and replacing main data of a sector with predetermined data according to the result of checking the data type identification information. According to the above method, data type information is checked to determine whether or not to replace main data of the current sector with dummy data. By doing so, error occurrence of the prior art can be prevented and block error correction is carried out more effectively.
