Two-dimensional magnetic recording (TDMR) is an emerging storage technology that aims
to achieve areal densities on the order of 10 Tb/in 2, mainly driven by innovative channels …

Banded linear systems arise in many communication scenarios, eg, those involving inter-
carrier interference and inter-symbol interference. Motivated by recent advances in deep …

This article presents a concatenated Bahl-Cocke-Jelinek-Raviv (BCJR) detector, low-density
parity-check (LDPC) decoder, and deep neural network (DNN) architecture for a turbo …

In this paper, a local area influence probabilistic (LAIP) detector for estimating magnetic
grain interactions with coded data bits in two-dimensional magnetic recording is combined …

Data areal-density has always been a key metric in magnetic recording. An increase in 'bits
per square inch'allows a higher capacity product to be developed at similar cost. Areal …

2-D inter-symbol-interference (2-D-ISI), consisting of ISI in the down track direction and inter-
track interference along the cross-track direction, is a major factor that severely degrades the …

Recently, magnetic recording technology has been on the verge of reaching its recording
density limit. Two-dimensional (2-D) magnetic recording (TDMR) is expected to be a …

This paper proposes probabilistic message-passing turbo detection algorithms for 2-D
magnetic recording that locally estimate magnetic grain interactions with coded data bits …

This paper considers turbo equalization for 2-D magnetic recording. Magnetic grains are
modeled as Voronoi regions of randomly distributed nuclei. Bits read from the magnetic …

Dynamic grain state estimation (DGSE) algorithms for 2-D magnetic recording (TDMR)
employ probabilistic message-passing algorithms that jointly estimate magnetic grain …
