Outline • Media Defect Model • Precoding Performance Loss • BCJR Analysis of Erasure Detection • Improved Algorithm • Simulation Results • Summary 9th MMM/Intermag
Media Defect Model Envelope 1-η η=0.5 Partial erasure Full erasure η=1.0 t 9th MMM/Intermag
Precoding Loss • LDPC coded ME2PR4 channel • AWGN • Ideally detected erasures • Several precoders • Asymptotic density evolution (DE) analysis of code (3,30) • Simulation of code (4376,3,30) 9th MMM/Intermag
Numerical Results • Precoding causes a loss of 0.2~0.7 dB • 1/(1+D) is the best precoder • DE and simulation results are consistent • The ranking of the precoders does not change with erasures 9th MMM/Intermag
BCJR Analysis • BCJR algorithm • Erasure section • No useful signal, zi=ni 9th MMM/Intermag
Erasure Detection Non-Precoded 1/(1+D)-Precoded • γi(s',s,yi=0)>γi(s',s,yi≠0) • αi(s=●)>αi(s≠●) • βi(s=●)> βi(s≠●) • (s'→s,yi=0) selected • Non-precoded: 00…00, 11…11, 10…10, RLL(0,G|I) • 1/(1+D) precoded: 00…00, 11…11, RLL(0,k) 9th MMM/Intermag
BCJR LLRs Nonprecoded, η=0.5 • Amplitude of BCJR LLRs attenuated • Long runs of zi =0 • Erasures 1/(1+D)-Precoded, η=0.5 1/(1+D)-Precoded, η=1.0 Non-Precoded, η=1.0 1/(1+D)-Precoded, η=0.5 Non-Precoded, η=0.5 • Can be used to detect (partial) erasures in combination with RLL codes 9th MMM/Intermag
Improved Algorithm • Tentative BCJR decisions • Broader RLL checks • Runs of • Runs of • Runs of 9th MMM/Intermag
Simulation Results • ME2PR4/(1+D),Sc=2.995 • LDPC (4608,3751),R=0.814 • L=192, k = 28 • The new algorithm is slightly better • EPR4/(1+D2),Sc=2.995 • LDPC (4608,4096),R=0.899 • L=128, k = 28 • The new algorithm is 0.5 dB better 9th MMM/Intermag
Summary • 1/(1+D) is the best precoder for the ME2PR4 channel, if needed • BCJR analysis of erasure detection • RLL(0,k) for 1/(1+D)-precoded ME2PR4 • RLL(0,G|I) for non-precoded ME2PR4 • BCJR LLR amplitude thresholding • Improved algorithm • Better performance 9th MMM/Intermag
