Abstract
The demand for enormous storage devices has kept increasing, leading to the development of various advanced technologies with a vast storage capacity. Extensive numbers of related research studies have been aiming at optimizing code design and algorithms analytically; however, enacting them on practical devices has been scarce. Achieving this demand might bring some obstacles called two-dimensional interference and skew angle (SA). To meet the challenge of the obstacle, we propose a SA detection method for bit-patterned magnetic recording systems by computing a specific target by three readback sequences before estimating the SA value and detecting the SA amount happening in the system using an application of neural network namely multilayer perceptron. An error correction code, low-density parity-check, is applied, and its decoder outputs a log-likelihood ratio whose probability density distribution is examined. The simulation results show that the sliding window technique can significantly provide a better bit error rate performance.
