In two-dimensional magnetic recording (TDMR) channels, intersymbol interference (within
and between tracks) and patterndependent media noise are impediments to reaching higher …

Shingled magnetic recording is a promising option to sustain the historical areal density
growth of hard disk drives while retaining conventional heads and media. Nevertheless …

Data detection in magnetic recording (MR) channels can be viewed as an image processing
problem, proceeding from the 2-D image of readback bits, to higher level abstractions of …

In this paper, we present a model of a shingled magnetic recording system, where Voronoi
regions are used to model the grains of the magnetic medium. A probabilistic model is used …

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 …

The magnetic recording industry is perennially trying to grow the areal density by optimizing
the head/media, the coding/signal processing, and the bit length (BL) and track pitch (TP) of …

Array-reader-based magnetic recording (ARMR) shows potential to achieve areal density
capability (ADC) beyond 1 Tb/in 2 by jointly processing multiple readback streams. Dual …

Two-dimensional magnetic recording (TDMR) is a recently proposed recording scheme
aimed at extending the life of conventional granular magnetic recording (CGMR) without a …

In this paper, we perform an estimate of the areal density achievable for microwave-assisted
magnetic recording (MAMR) using micromagnetic simulations (μ-mag), the grain-flip** …
