Abstract

Peak detectors are a common practice in standard high density magnetic recording systems. It has been noticed that one of the major impairments in these systems is the so-called bit shift (peak shift). The authors propose a new coding technique for correcting peak shifts. A coded system that operates over a multipeak (bit) shift channel (PSC) is best formulated in terms of phrase length, where a phrase is uniquely defined by a consecutive sequence of bits starting with none, one or more zeros and terminating with the first single one (″1″).
