Method for an equalizer computation in a media system using a data set separator sequence

摘要

An equalizer coefficients generator receives a DSS sequence and a DSS readback sequence, which is a function of a channel processing of the DSS sequence by a read channel. The generator generates a coefficeint cyclic equalizer vector as a function of the DSS sequence and the DSS readback sequence. The generator further generates an error signal as a function of a comparison of the DSS sequence and an equalization of the DSS readback sequence based on the coefficeint cyclic equalizer vector. An unacceptable error signal indicates a need to adjust the coefficeint cyclic equalizer vector to yield an acceptable comparison of the DSS sequence and an equalization of the DSS readback sequence based on the coefficeint cyclic equalizer vector.
