Abstract
This paper considers the nonlinear effect on magnetic recording channels in order to reduce the system distortion. We propose the designed minimum-mean square error (MMSE) equalizer and targets for a high density perpendicular magnetic recording to combat the nonlinear transition shift (NLTS) in a channel characterized by jitter noise and additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN). Due to the complex nature of nonlinear effects, the nonlinearity of a read-back signal is modeled by the second order Volterra model consisting of linear and nonlinear parts. The bit-error rate (BER) of the nonlinear-affected system using the designed MMSE equalizer is significantly decreased. The results show that the proposed MMSE equalizer with gt=1 constraint can decrease the inter-symbol interference (ISI) that causes nonlinearity and also improves a system performance.
