摘要： A channel tracking module, configured for generating updated equalization coefficients for a frequency equalizer, is configured for determining a digital-based error value between equalized signals output by the frequency equalizer relative to predicted signals, for each subcarrier frequency of an OFDM symbol. The channel tracking module determines an accumulated error based on accumulating the digital-based error values for all the subcarrier frequencies of the OFDM symbol, for a prescribed successive number of OFDM symbols. The channel tracking module also determines a step size based on the accumulated error and relative to a prescribed step function configured for optimizing equalizer adjustments within stability limits. The channel tracking updates the equalization coefficients for each subscarrier frequency based on the accumulated error and the step size. Hence, the channel tracking module can be implemented in an economical manner while ensuring optimum equalizer adjustments within stability limits that ensure convergence of the equalization coefficients.

摘要： Providing for single and multi-bit error correction of electronic memory is described herein. As an example, error correction can be accomplished by establishing a suspect region between bit level distributions of a set of analyzed memory cells. The suspect region can define potential error bits for the distributions. If a bit error is detected for the distributions, error correction can first be applied to the potential error bits in the suspect region. By identifying suspected error bits and limiting initial error correction to such identified bits, complexities involved in applying error correction to all bits of the distributions can be mitigated or avoided, improving efficiency of bit error corrections for electronic memory.

摘要： An accumulative repeat encoder facilitates encoding data written to memory, such that parity data is generated in accordance with a low-density parity-check (LDPC) code. The original data and associated parity data is stored in memory. During a read operation, a decoder component utilizes the parity data based on the LDPC code to facilitate decoding the data being read from memory. The decoder component is iterative and provides one or more decoding results based on probabilities that symbols or bits comprising the data have correct values. The decoder component analyzes a decoding result and references a parity-check matrix structured in accordance with the LDPC code to determine the accuracy of the decoding result. If the decoding result attains a desired accuracy, the decoding result is determined to represent the original data and is provided as an output.

摘要： Systems, methods, and/or devices that facilitate accessing data from memory are presented. An adaptive detection component can be employed to reduce or minimize detection error and distinguish information stored in memory cells during read operations. A decoder component can include the adaptive detection component, which can employ an adaptive Linde-Buzo-Gray (LBG) algorithm. The decoder component can receive information associated with a current level from a memory location during a read operation, and can analyze and process such information. The adaptive detection component can receive the processed information and, along with other information, can process such information using the iterative LBG algorithm until reconstruction levels and corresponding threshold levels are determined. Such reconstruction levels and/or threshold levels can be compared to the value associated with the information read from the memory location to determine the data value of the data in the memory location.
