    摘要: A method is presented to enable the impulse response of a channel to be identified when the received signal contains a large amount of quantization noise. A probabilistic estimate of the distribution of the quantization noise is subtracted from the summation of the products of the received training signal samples and tap coefficients to provide a more accurate error signal for the adjustment of the tap coefficients.

    摘要: Methods and apparatus for recovering a desired signal from a composite signal. In one method, sample-based information maximization techniques for blind deconvolution are utilized to learn a filter (22) which removes undesired dependencies from the composite signal. Entropy as an expectation over individual samples of the composite signal is maximized. In another method, dependencies of the composite signal are selectively removed by learning a first filter (42) that removes the desired dependencies and outputs a filtered signal. The filtered signal is used as the learning material for a second filter (44) such that the second filter learns to remove only the remaining dependencies (undesired dependencies) from the filtered signal. The composite signal is applied to the second filter (44) which thereby removes the undesired dependencies.

    摘要: The present invention relates to a signal reproducing method and a signal reproducing apparatus for reproducing a signal recorded by a high-density recording. The invention avoids deteriorating the performance of an ML detector while suppressing the equalization loss and the correlation noise. The signal reproducing method includes steps of generating a first signal using a first selected number of convolutions, generating a second signal using a second selected number of convolutions, and combining the first and second signals to identify the information in the input signal. The first and second signals can be processed by adding or subtracting the first and second signals, depending on the circuit configuration. With this invention, the number of convolution steps is reduced, and it is possible to reduce equalization loss and correlation noise using circuits having a small circuit scale. When applied to a disk drive, it is possible to improve reliability, reduce circuit scale and reduce the size and weight of the drive. It is also possible to obtain a high-density recording due to the reduced error rate realized by this invention.

    摘要: A data receiving system, for equalizing a reception signal by using a decision feedback equalizer when the reception signal is formatted to have a sync signal positioned at the center of a burst, comprises a receiving buffer for storing reception data, training calculation means for obtaining a tap coefficient by performing a training using the sync signal involved in the reception data, a direction selecting means for selecting a preferable direction for a tracking of the decision feedback equalizer, based on a judgement as to which direction is preferable for the decision feedback equalizer between the direction identical with the receiving sequence of the reception data and the direction opposed to the receiving sequence of the reception data, and a tracking calculation means for performing the calculation of the decision feedback equalizer by tracking the reception data along the preferable direction using the tap coefficient given from the training calculation means having executed the training along the preferable direction selected by the direction selecting means. With this arrangement, the decision feedback equalizer can be used in the minimum phase transition which is the most effective condition for the DFE, thereby enhancing the effect of compensating the distortion derived from the multipath fading.
