    We discuss background interference (BGI) arising from the read-back of preexisting data and adjacent tracks on a recording medium. A signal-To-noise ratio analysis is used to measure the impact of BGI in heat-Assisted magnetic recording in a spin-stand tester. The signal-To-noise ratio for a data track with an alternating field background was compared to a data track written over a pair of background tracks. We considered the effect of background track offsets: The distance between the background and data tracks. BGI, which depends on the background track offset, can degrade read-back performance. The dibit extraction technique is able to separate the linear dibit response and the BGI in the read-back waveform.

    The performance of a rate-4/5 modulation code is evaluated in two-dimensional magnetic recording (TDMR) channels, where a magnetic medium is described by a discrete Voronoi model, and the two-dimensional sensitivity function of the reader is adopted to generate the TDMR readback signal. Since the read-head sensitivity function covers many tracks, it causes intertrack interference (ITI) that can deteriorate the system performance. Therefore, this letter proposes an ITI subtraction scheme in conjunction with the rate-4/5 modulation code in a coded TDMR channel to mitigate the ITI effect embedded in the readback signals before performing an iterative decoding process. We also investigate the data-dependent readback amplitude distributions and evaluate the TDMR system performance via computer simulation. Results show that the proposed scheme helps improve the TDMR system performance, especially when the areal density is high.
