    Abstract: An approximate enumerative coding method (100, 200) and apparatus (300) employ a cardinality-approximating (C-A) lower bound in mapping a message M to a 2-dimensional (2-D) codeword array that satisfies a 2-D constraint. The method (100) includes encoding the message M as a codeword array X using an encoder apparatus. The encoding determines entries in a codeword array X using the C-A lower bound. The C-A lower bound is a function of several terms, namely a memory term k, a cardinality of a set of sequences satisfying a horizontal constraint, a columnar extension probability of the 2-D constraint, and a non-negative constant that is a function of the columnar extension probability. The apparatus (300) includes an encoder processor (310), memory (320) and a computer program (330) stored in the memory (320) and executed by the encoder processor (310).

    Abstract: M-bit data are encoded into n-bit data such that the encoded n-bit data has a sufficient number of encoded data patterns enough to encode the number (2 m ) of data patterns in the m- bit data but that the n-bit data has Hamming Weights (HWs) with minimum (smallest possible) variation. Specifically, encoder logic is configured to receive 2 m of m-bit data patterns and encode the 2 m of m-bit data patterns to n-bit encoded data patterns, n being greater than m and me being a positive integer greater than one. The encoder logic is configured to map the 2 m m-bit data patterns to a subset of 2 n of the n-bit encoded data patterns, and the n-bit data patterns in said subset has a minimum (smallest possible) range of Hamming Weight variation while the number of the n-bit data patterns in said subset is not less than 2 m .

    Abstract: A channel encoding method is disclosed, which comprises dk-encoding and NRZI precoding, the output of which obeys a repeated minimum transition runlength constraint and is FSM decodable with a given lookahead depth. Occurrences of RMTR violating critical bit sequences are replaced by same length replacement sequences containing extended zero runs; and the FSM decodability with a given lookahead depth is achieved by using only those replacement sequences that are decodable with the given lookahead depth. A pertaining FSM channel decoding method and channel decoding apparatus, as well as using the FSM in trellis decoding, are disclosed.

    Abstract: Methods and apparatus are provided for modulation coding a stream of binary input data. A 4-ary enumerative encoding algorithm is applied to the input bit-stream to produce a succession of 4-ary output symbols. The 4-ary algorithm is operative to simultaneously encode respective generalized Fibonacci codes in the odd and even interleaves of the input bit-stream. The bits of each successive 4-ary output symbol are then interleaved, producing an output bit-stream which has global and interleaved run-length constraints. Inverting the bits of the 4-ary output symbols produces an output bit-stream with (G, I) -constraints as in the PRML (G, I) codes used in reverse-concatenation modulation systems. Corresponding decoding systems are also provided.

    Abstract: Presently known d=l codes have long trains consisting of consecutive 2T runs and an overall high frequency of occurrence of the shortest 2T runs that reduce the performance of the bit detector. By using a code with an MTR constraint of 2 an improvement in the bit detection is achieved. A code constructed in a systematic way that provides an MTR constraint of 2 is presented. A variation of such a code is disclosed where one sub-code is used, where coding states are divided into coding classes and where code words are divided into code word types. Then, for a given sub-code, an code word of type t can be concatenated with an code word of the next sub-code if said subsequent code word of said next sub-code belongs to one of coding states of the coding class with index T max + 1 t . In the code according to the invention the overall code has the property that the respective channel bit sequences that are encoded from the same message-bit sequence, starting from any possible state of the finite-state-machine, for each of the two values of a DC-control bit, that is part of a given user word have opposite parities for the sequences generated from the starting state up to the state where both encoder paths merge. For the case that the encoder paths do not merge, there is no such constraint. Finally, a new d=l, k=10 sliding-block decodable RLL code is disclosed with the following properties: (i) it has an r=2 constraint which is the lowest MTR value that is compatible with a rate R=2/3; (ii) it enables practical SISO-RLL decoding because of its compact 2-to-3 mapping; and (iii) the new code uses a parity-complementary word assignment 4 (PCWA) for DC-control.

    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method and apparatus for controlling at least one readout parameter of a magneto-optical domain expansion recording medium. An average detected runlength of the reading signal is monitored, and an error signal is generated on the basis of a comparison of the monitoring result with the predetermined average runlength that has been set during the encoding step. The at least one readout parameter is then controlled by means of the generated error signal. Furthermore, the present invention relates to a method, apparatus and record carrier wherein a runlength constraint is applied to at least one of the following quantities: mark regions and space regions in said storage layer, said runlength constraint being selected to keep an accumulated runlength deviation from a predetermined average runlength within a predetermined range. The proposed runlength property and control scheme provide the advantage that all detected runlengths contribute to the error signal to make the response must faster and to reduce readout errors.

    Abstract: A data detector system illuminates a spot (21) centred on a centroid between three symbols (20) in a hexagonal lattice. The lattice does not include guard bands and so there is a high data density. A data detector uses sum-product processing to generate an estimate for each symbol, treating sample values as constraints that need to be satisfied.
