Title: Block turbo codes for magnetic recording channels
Abstract: Block turbo codes have been shown to have near-optimum performance and lower decoding complexity than convolutional turbo codes for additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) channels. In this paper we discuss the applicability of block turbo codes to partial-response (PR) equalized Lorentzian channels for magnetic recording. In particular, we consider the iterative decoding of product codes and parallel concatenated block codes. Simulation results show that both systems offer substantial gains over uncoded systems.
