Coding for multitrack magnetic recording systems
Erozan M. Kurtas, John G. Proakis, Masoud Salehi · IEEE Transactions on Information Theory · 1997
In this correspondence we consider the coding for multitrack magnetic recording systems. We provide analytical results related to uncoded and coded multitrack systems which constitute the basis of the code construction. We have designed matched spectral null codes for multitrack recording systems which give coding gains from 3 to 4.8 dB over uncoded systems.
