    Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for error recovery in a digital data channel. In an error recovery approach when the hardware fails to recover a sector, the sample for that sector can be saved along with a metric measure that indicates the quality of the sample. This process can begin from a first on-the-fly receiving and decoding of data. During each step of error recovery, a retry attempt may either use samples obtained during a new decoding attempt or may use a sample, or a combination of samples, having the best metric from an earlier attempt, or a combination of earlier attempts, to perform the recovery during a current retry recovery attempt.

    Abstract: In one implementation, the disclosure provides a system including a detector configured to generate an output of a first log-likelihood ratio for each bit in an input data stream. The system also includes at least one look-up table providing a mapping of the first log-likelihood ratio to a second log-likelihood ratio. The mapping between the first log-likelihood ratio and the second log-likelihood ratio is non-linear. The system also includes a decoder configured to generate an output data stream using the second log-likelihood ratio to generate a value for each bit in the input data stream.

    Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for minimizing reads for reallocated sectors of a data storage medium. An apparatus may be configured to selectively skip over reallocated sectors in an LBA range without interrupting a read, via generating a skip mask or by beginning the read after the reallocated sector and reading the entire track up to the reallocated sector. When a number of sectors not read from the LBA range during the read operation is less than an amount of sectors that can be recovered based on an error correction capability, the data of the reallocated sector may be reconstructed using error correction data rather than by performing a read at the reallocated sector.

    Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for implementing unequal error correction code (ECC) in multi-track recording. A device may comprise a circuit configured to implement an error correction coding scheme applying different code rate error correction codes on adjacent tracks within a same recording zone. The circuit may perform a read operation, including simultaneously detecting bits from a first track and a second track of the adjacent tracks, iteratively applying detected bits from the first track to perform adjacent track interference cancellation (ATIC) to decode bits from the second track, and iteratively applying detected bits from the second track to perform ATIC to decode bits from the first track.

    Abstract: Encoding and decoding schemes are presented with various configurations for error correcting code (ECC) encoders and decoders. Bits from encoders can be interleaved before they are transmitted to the communications medium. During receiving, or read back, stronger, converged ECC decoders can help with weaker decoders through detector iterations. Variations of iterative detector-decoders are described.
