Title:
ASYMMETRIC RUN LENGTH CONSTRAINTS FOR INCREASED RESOLUTION AND POWER MARGIN IN MAMMOS READ-OUT
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2003049101
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
In the present invention asymmetric run length constraints with different minimum run lengths for first and second patterns representing binary data are introduced, like dm=0 for the first pattenr, i.e. shortest sequence of first patterns is equal to the bit period, and ds>0 for the second pattern, i.e. shortest sequence of second patterns is equal to d+1 bit periods. Thereby, the small "cost" of a reduced code rate will be more than compensated by a large increase in power margin.
