    摘要: An ERSEC system that applies a level of error correction that is inversely related to susceptibility to error as indicated by a signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) profile of a channel. The SNR profile is estimated, detected or retrieved from an external source. The ERSEC system is used with any channel for which the SNRs can vary spatially, temporally or both.

    摘要: Systems and methods are provided for decoding received codewords using an LDPC code. An LDPC post-processor is disclosed for performing post-processing when standard LDPC decoding fails due to a trapping set. The LDPC post-processor may direct the LDPC decoder to decode the received codeword again, but may change some of the inputs to the LDPC decoder so that the LDPC decoder does not fail in the same way. In one embodiment, the LDPC post-processor may modify the symbol positions in the received codeword that correspond to a particular unsatisfied check. In another embodiment, the LDPC post-processor may modify the messages in the decoder's iterative message algorithm that correspond to the symbol positions.

    摘要: Systems and methods are provided for improved designs and performance for iterative decoder systems. In some embodiments, the iterative decoder may be decoupled from FIR samples through an FIR RAM, thus resulting in a less complex design and shorter processing times. In some embodiments, an intermediate memory may be used when passing information between the SOVA and LDPC of the iterative decoder. In some embodiments, the SOVA-required information may be continuously serialized from information received from the LDPC during each LDPC iteration. In some embodiments, the 1/(1+D2) precoder of the HR RLL encoder may be split into two serial, 1/(1+D) precoders. One 1/(1+D) precoder may be pulled outside of the HR RLL encoder and used in conjunction with the iterative decoder. This may allow for a 1/(1+D) precoder that may be used with the iterative decoder while maintaining the RLL constraints imposed upon the encoded information by the HR RLL encoder.

    摘要翻译: 提供了系统和方法,用于改进迭代解码器系统的设计和性能。 在一些实施例中,迭代解码器可以通过FIR RAM从FIR样本去耦,从而导致较不复杂的设计和较短的处理时间。 在一些实施例中,当在迭代解码器的SOVA和LDPC之间传递信息时,可以使用中间存储器。 在一些实施例中,可以在每次LDPC迭代期间从从LDPC接收的信息中连续序列化所需的SOVA信息。 在一些实施例中,HR RLL编码器的1 /(1 + D2)预编码器可以被分成两个串行,1 /(1 + D)个预编码器。 一个1 /(1 + D)预编码器可以被拉出HR RLL编码器外部并与迭代解码器结合使用。 这可以允许可以与迭代解码器一起使用的1 /(1 + D)预编码器,同时保持由HR RLL编码器对编码信息施加的RLL约束。
