ABSTRACT:
A sampled amplitude read channel is disclosed for reading binary data from a computer disk storage system, wherein the read channel sub-samples an analog read signal at a rate lower than the baud rate and detects the binary data from the sub-sampled values using a sequence detector. In one embodiment, the sub-sampled values are interpolated to generate synchronous sample values which are processed by a conventional sequence detector. In another embodiment, the sequence detector is modified to detect the binary data directly from the sub-sampled values. In yet another embodiment, the sequence detector comprises a remodulator and an error pattern detector for detecting and correcting bit errors in the detected binary data. In addition, for the various embodiments a channel code increases the distance property of the sequence detector in order to compensate for the degradation in performance caused by sub-sampling.
