    Currently, hard disk drive has been struggled to overcome the super-paramagnetic limit that restricts the density increment. Bit-patterned magnetic recording (BPMR) is a candidate that can increase an areal density (AD) up to 4 Tb/in2. However, inter-track interference (ITI) arising from a narrow track width at high AD severely degrades the system performance. This study proposes the ITI subtraction technique with turbo iteration in a coded BPMR system. This method refines the equalized sequence by subtracting the ITI using an imitated ITI sequence that is generated by the soft information obtained from turbo iteration and ITI coefficients. The refined sequence that contains the partial ITI is sent to the turbo iteration as many rounds as needed. Simulation results indicate that the proposed system outperforms the conventional system whether or not media noise is considered.

    Bit-patterned media recording (BPMR) is a promising technology for ultra-high density media, however, there are some challenges that need to be addressed including two-dimensional (2D) interference, and track mis-registration (TMR). The system can experience TMR due to misalignment of the head and the track center. Conventionally, TMR is tackled using a servo system in which the head position offset is estimated by processing the overhead servo sequences before reading the data sequences. However, TMR impairment can also occur when the head is reading data sequences that are beyond the servo mechanism. To address this problem, we proposed TMR detection and correction techniques based on our previous work involving a single-track equalization method for a BPMR system using cross-correlation functions between the single readback signal and each of the training sequences from three adjacent tracks. In this proposed technique, the presence and level of TMR is detected and estimated based on the changes in the value of mean square error (MSE) between the equalized and feedback signals from the detectors after passing through a one-dimensional (1D) target for each sequence. Then, the estimated TMR levels are used in selecting the appropriate equalizer and the generalized partial response (GPR) target pair to tackle the TMR from the readback signal. The simulation results show improvement in the data recovery of a BPMR system using the proposed method when the system is experiencing 2D interference and TMR impairment.
