Abstract
In this article, a new multidimensional signal processing scheme for a heated-dot magnetic recording (HDMR) system using double-layered bit-patterned media (BPM) is proposed. This proposed signal processing scheme is capable of simultaneously detecting data sequences recorded on two tracks in each layer sequentially. The effective transmission rate of the HDMR system with two-track simultaneous log-likelihood ratio (LLR) detection and double-layered recording can be increased about four times that of the HDMR system with single-track LLR detection and single-layered recording if the data sequence recorded on each track has the same rate. It is shown that the error rate performance of the HDMR system with two-track simultaneous LLR detection and double-layered recording shows a significant improvement over the HDMR system with single-track LLR detection and single-layered recording by computer simulation.
