Methods of encoding and decoding, as well as an encoding system and a digital communications system are provided for encoding data words into code words and decoding code words into data words. The data words are encoded according to a run-length-limited (RLL) code of "k" constraint, the encoding producing u-bit non-zero code words. The "k" constraint can be increased to a higher value by extending the u-bit non-zero code words to generate q-bit non-zero code words. |
