发明名称 Data detection in a disk drive system using erasure pointers
摘要 Control circuitry for a disk drive system that has improved data detection by using log likelihood values and erasure pointers. The control circuitry is comprised of a log likelihood modification system and a decoder. The log likelihood modification system receives log likelihood values that represent data and erasure pointers. The erasure pointers point to at least one of the log likelihood values that has been corrupted in some manner. The log likelihood modification system sets the log likelihood values, that the erasure pointer points to, to an error value to generate modified log likelihood values. The log likelihood modification system transfers the modified log likelihood values to the decoder. The decoder processes the modified log likelihood values based on code constraints to generate estimated log likelihood values. The decoder then decodes the data from the estimated log likelihood values.
