New Angles on the Multidimensional Intersymbol Interference (ISI) Problem
-
Objective:
- Invent new algorithms to reduce or eliminate the effects of 2D and 3D ISI in next generation optical disk and holographic storage systems.
-
Technologies:
- Iterative 2D ISI equalization; lowdensity parity check (LDPC) coding; Markov random field (MRF) modeling.
-
Uniqueness:
- Best-performing 2D ISI equalizer published to date; only published algorithm to exploit MRF structure of 2D input data.
