    摘要: A digital magnetic recording/reproducing apparatus that has an LVA detector, and that is able to maintain the coding rate as high as {fraction (8/9)} or more, and record at a higher density than in the prior art, wherein, in order that the data sequences up to the (2n−1)th best sequence (n>1) are obtained in the order of higher likelihood ratios, and that. the candidates of those data sequences can be produced, the LVA detector has provided therein a unit which replaces the likelihood ratio and path memory of the ith best sequence by those of the (2i−1)th best sequence when the contents of the (i−1)th path memory coincide with those of the ith path memory (i=2, 3, . . . , n) and the absolute value of the likelihood ratio difference between the (i−1)th best sequence and the (2i−1)th best sequence is smaller than a decision threshold, or a unit which initializes the likelihood ratio of the ith best sequence to be a constant difference value added to the likelihood ratio of the (i−1)th best sequence when the contents of the (i−1)th path memory and the ith (i=2, 3, . . . , n) path memory of the n candidates of data sequences are coincident.

    摘要: In a data demodulating method, predetermined input data is based upon a response characteristic of the partial response class 4. The predetermined input data is discrete-filtered to thereby produce filtered asymmetrical data. The filtered asymmetrical data is maximum-likelihood-decoded to thereby produce decoded data that is demodulated. Further, a magnetic recording/reproducing apparatus is arranged by using this data demodulating method.

    摘要: In one embodiment, a symbol error correction encoder effects block interleaving on recording data and thereafter performs first error correction encoding on the recording data. Next, a symbol error correction encoder performs encoding on the whole block. A reproducing processing circuit outputs likelihood information of respective bits. A first error correction decoder corrects a random error produced upon recording and reproduction, using the likelihood information. Since it is possible to make an improvement in performance with respect to the random error by repetitive decoding at this time, the post-correction data is returned to the reproducing processing circuit. After the completion of such repetitive processing, the data is digitized and subjected to an error correction in symbol unit by a hard determination, and outputted to a symbol error correction decoder.

    摘要: A maximum likelihood decoding circuit is arranged to reduce the power consumption through the effect of the Viterbi algorithm. A plurality of storing elements 61a to 61h located vertically in a column and for storing each state survivor path information at the same time point are treated as storing element blocks 60(1) to 60(D) in a manner to correspond to the combination (state) of intra-code interferences. The outputs from the storing elements 61a to 61h are again applied into the inputs of the corresponding storing elements contained in the same storing element block through the path history selecting circuits 62a to 62h. Each of the storing element block 60(1) to 60(D) is periodically started on the input timing of a receiving signal at each processing time point by starting points (pointers) 63(1) to 63(D) outputted from a starting signal (pointer) generating circuit 68. A storing element block output circuit 64 and storing element block output terminals 65(1) to 65(D) are provided in each of the storing element blocks 60(1) to 60(D) so that a path memory circuit output 67 may be outputted through an OR circuit 66.

    摘要: A signal processing apparatus capable of reducing burst error generation, and a highly reliable data recording/reproducing apparatus using this signal processing apparatus. This signal processing apparatus has a simple error detection/correction circuit provided just before a modulated code demodulator, thereby correcting error of a pattern easy to occur in a maximum likelihood decoder. The simple error detection/correction circuit is an error detection/correction circuit using a linear error correction code, for example, an error correction code (CRCC) formed of a cyclic code. Thus the number of burst errors after the modulated code demodulator can be decreased.
