20080272940 | Method and apparatus for channel coding and decoding - In a channel encoder comprising a dk-encoder stage and a precoding stage, obeyance of a repeated minimum transition runlength constraint is achieved because, between the dk-encoder and the precoder, data are passed through an RMTR encoder which replaces occurrences of a forbidden pattern by a current replacement pattern having the same length as the forbidden pattern. By appropriately selecting current replacement patterns from a predefined set of two different replacement patterns, DC-control can be achieved for the encoder output. The corresponding decoder is described, which also employs pattern replacement. | 11-06-2008 |
20080278356 | Method and apparatus for channel coding - For controlling the DC-content of a Run Length Limited RLL modulated channel bit stream organized in data blocks, control bits are periodically inserted into control blocks which are dynamically placed and sized near the data block boundaries in such a way as to enable independent dk-encoding of the data blocks body and the control blocks. Running digital sum differences are calculated. Control bit insertion is done in such a way that the d,k constraints of the RLL code are not violated, that the encoded dk sequence of the data block body is not altered, and that the running digital sum is minimized by eventually inverting the contribution of the data block body thereto. Compared to the number of data bits per data block, few control bits are sufficient to keep the digital sum variation DSV of the Running Digital Sum RDS small. | 11-13-2008 |

20090268857 | Cycle slip detection for timing recovery - A method and an arrangement for cycle slip detection for timing recovery of a received analog signal comprising asynchronously sampled digital data are recommended. More specifically a fully digital implementation of a timing recovery control loop using a technique known as interpolated timing recovery and improved cycle slip detection as well as improved cycle slip correction based on said cycle slip detection are recommended. The method comprises the steps of using an output signal of the loop filter in the control loop for timing recovery, generating averaged timing error values from said filtered timing error signal and accumulating changes of the averaged timing error values in adjacent blocks of samples which exceed a first threshold. Accumulated averaged timing error changes of adjacent blocks which exceed a second threshold are then declared as cycle slip and the number of cycle slips is determined by a third threshold being a tolerance threshold. Furthermore, a first-in, first-out memory is provided for sample insertion or deletion, which means that a sample insertion or sample deletion takes place in the sample domain with increased reliability and an improved method for cycle slip detection is recommended due to increased robustness against noise and inappropriately chosen timing loop parameters, which is also applicability for systems with frequency-offsets. The method and a corresponding arrangement are applicable for timing recovery of signals having high intersymbol interference, low signal to noise ratio and frequency offset as e.g. provided by reading a high-density data storage medium or received by mobile phone. | 10-29-2009 |

The method comprises the steps of calculating a syndrome of a received word, splitting the syndrome into two parts, checking 3 integer weight quantities calculated from the two syndrome parts, converting the syndrome into a vector of integer valued “orthogonal bit error weights” associated to the received bits, and toggling those bits of the received word, where the associated “orthogonal bit error weight” is in the upper half of its possible value range. | 10-21-2010 |
20110225474 | METHOD AND APARATUS FOR ERASURE DECODING AN ECC CODED BITSTREAM - The error correction capability of block codes can be doubled if error locations are known.

The present invention proposes and describes how error location information in the form of clues is derived from given DC control bits that are anyway present in a data stream. | 09-15-2011 |
