A new method for high-rate RLL codes design
Luminița Scripcariu, P. Duma · 2003
Run-Length Limited (RLL) codes are a key component in digital data recording, for computer storage and electronic entertainment applications according to K.A. Schouhamer Immink (1991). Hardware storage devices with high-density data, such as Compact Discs or DVD, use RLL codes. High coding efficiency (over 90%) is obtained for high-rate codes. The design of these codes using the classic graphic method is very complicated according to K.A. Schouhamer Immink et al. (1998). Therefore we propose an efficient method for high-rate codes design and different RLL family codes are designed based on it. Some new high-rate binary RLL codes are included as examples.
