    摘要: An embodiment of the present invention implements some or all major servo subfunctions for a storage device in integrated servo fields comprising sequences of encoded bits having selected mathematical properties. The integrated servo field is composed of a number of encoded sequences, which are members of a selected sequence set that is constrained to preferably provide some or all of the following functions: the Servo Track Mark (STM), the Position Error Signal (PES) and location information such as the track-ID. The juxtaposition of sequences in the servo wedges is additionally constrained to increase the detectability of the contribution of adjacent sequences in the read signal. The integrated servo fields can provide a Position Error Signal (PES) in relation to the center of a data track through the amplitude of the signal read for adjacent sequences.

    摘要: A method includes: writing data in a magnetic recording system using a write channel of the magnetic recording system; processing output data of the write channel in accordance with a read channel of the magnetic recording system to measure baseline wander; and triggering re-writing through the write channel using different data scramblings when the measured baseline wander fails to satisfy a criterion. The processing can include modeling the read channel of the magnetic recording system, modeling one or more high pass filtering circuits of the magnetic recording system, or both. The writing can include encoding the data after scrambling of the data, the processing can include using a discrete time model of DC offset in the magnetic recording system, and the triggering can include triggering re-writing through the write channel using different scrambling seeds when the measured baseline wander fails to exceed a threshold.

    摘要: A digital sum variation (DSV) computation method and system is proposed, which is capable of determining the DSV value of a bit stream of channel-bit symbols to thereby find the optimal merge-bit symbol for insertion between each succeeding pair of the channel-bit symbols. This DSV computation method and system is characterized in the use of a Zero Digital Sum Variation (ZDSV) principle to determine the DSV. This DSV computation method and system can find the optimal merge-bit symbol for insertion between each succeeding pair of the channel-bit symbols in a more cost-effective manner with the need for a reduced amount of memory and utilizes a lookup table requiring a reduced amount of memory space for storage so that memory space can be reduced as compared to the prior art. This DSV computation method and system is therefore more advantageous to use than the prior art.

    摘要: A writing condition adjusting apparatus according to the present invention adjusts a writing condition using first and second recording patterns. The first recording pattern is used to adjust a writing condition for recording marks and spaces, of which the lengths are equal to or longer than a predetermined recording length, while the second recording pattern is used to adjust a writing condition for recording marks and spaces, of which the lengths are shorter than the predetermined recording length by one recording unit length. If it has been decided that the writing condition that has once been determined by making the write adjustment on such marks that are shorter by one recording unit length needs to be adjusted again, a signal index value that has been defined based on the first recording pattern is set to be a target value. The writing condition for recording marks, which are shorter by one recording unit length, is adjusted again so that a signal index value associated with those marks that are shorter by one recording unit length becomes as close to the target value as possible.

    摘要: A data writing device for preventing a phase-change optical disc from deteriorating due to repeated writing and for preventing the rewritable number of times of the disc from decreasing. The device writes data including synchronization frames to the disc. Each synchronization frame includes a primary or secondary synchronization signal. A comparator compares a first accumulated DSV for specifying the data including the primary synchronization signal for the synchronization frame with a second accumulated DSV for specifying the recording data including the secondary synchronization signal for the synchronization frame and generates a first selection signal based on the comparison. An inverter randomly inverts the first selection signal to generate a second selection signal. A selection circuit receives the primary and secondary synchronization signals and outputs the primary or secondary synchronization signal in response to the second selection signal.

    摘要: The present techniques provide systems and methods for decoding a data signal with a control bit to improve bit estimation. The techniques in one embodiment involve using decoding algorithms to estimate the a posteriori state probabilities and the a posteriori transition probabilities of the data encoding, and estimating bit state probabilities. The techniques further involve using a control bit in the bit stream and comparing the estimation of the control bit state in the segment of the bit stream with a test control bit determined based on an average of bit states from the encoded segment of the bit stream. If the estimation of the control bit and the test control bit are not equal, the state of the bit estimate with the lowest confidence probability will be changed.
