We investigate misalignment characteristics of 5/8 modulation code for holographic data storage. The 5/8 modulation code does not have any isolated patterns that is the most unwanted problem for holographic data storage. As the results, the 5/8 modulation code showed a strong side of misalignments, and the code has the best performance among uncoded, 5/9, and 6/8 modulation codes when there are large misalignments.

In the holographic data storage system (HDSS), the data regarding the volume of a storage medium are recorded and read by the page, and the transmission rate and storage capacity can be increased because of two-dimensional, page-oriented data processing; furthermore, the multi-level HDSS can store more than one bit per pixel. For this same reason, however, and unlike conventional data-storage systems, the HDSS is hampered by two-dimensional (2D) intersymbol interference (ISI) and interpage interference (IPI). Progress regarding the published papers on 2D ISI, which is more severe in the multi-level HDSS, continues; however, mitigation of both 2D ISI and IPI in terms of the multi-level HDSS has not yet been studied. In this paper, we therefore propose a 4-level balanced-modulation code that simultaneously mitigates 2D ISI and IPI.

본 연구는 홀로그래픽 정보저장기기에서 트래킹 서보 제어를 통해 원하는 데이터를 정확하게 기록 및 재생하기 위한 LQG 제어기를 제안하고 검증하는 것을 목적으로 한다. 서보광이라는 추가적인 광을 사용할 것을 제안하여, 서보광과 참조광 간의 간섭에 의해 기록매체에 서보 신호를 얻을 수 있게 하는 홀로그램을 형성한다. 기록 및 재생과정에서 신호광이 기록, 재생됨과 동시에 서보광에 의한 서보 신호가 재생되고, 그 신호의 경로에 설치된 포토 다이오드로부터 디스크 형태에서 발생 할 수 있는 외란을 감지하게 된다. 감지된 외란 신호인 트래킹 에러 신호를 통해 참조광이 디스크의 정확한 위치에 조사되게 하기 위해 평판유리 액츄에이터를 사용한다. 이와 같은 서보 제어를 수행했을 경우 데이터 페이지가 정확하게 재생되며 SNR 과 BER 이 개선되는 것을 확인할 수 있다.

Since holographic data storages read and write information on a volume and the information is processed per page, it has the advantage of high recording density and data transfer rate. However, there are two major drawbacks like 2-dimensional intersymbol interference and interpage interference as the density between pixels increases. Furthermore, a bright page that contains many ON pixels influences the reliable detection of the neighboring pages, which causes the less number of pages stored in the storage volume. We propose a sparse-ON pixel two-dimensional modulation code with the code rate 6/8 for increasing the number of pages stored in the volume. The proposed code is compared to conventional 6/8 balanced code, and it shows similar or a little bit better performance than that of the balanced code. Therefore, the proposed code can increase the recording capacity without loss of the performance.

In this paper, a two-dimensional (2D) modulation code is introduced. The proposed code does not have any isolated pixel that is the most unwanted problem for holographic data storage. The proposed 2D modulation code is simpler than conventional 6/8 code and removes all the isolated 2D ISI patterns. As a result, when the grade of blur is 1.4, the proposed modulation code has better performance overall than conventional 6/8 modulation code. The proposed code has the optimal performance when 4bit quantization is applied.

The mutilevel holographic data storage offers considerable advantage for capacity, since it can store more than one bit per pixel. In this paper, we search the number of codewords for each code depending on three conditions: (1) the number of levels, (2) the number of pixels in a codeword, and (3) the minimum Euclidean distance of a code. Increasing the number of levels per pixel creates more capacity, while causing more errors, by reducing the noise margin. Increasing the number of pixels in a codeword can increase the code rate, which means more capacity, but increases the complexity of the encoder/decoder of the code. Increasing the minimum distance of a code reduces the detection error, while reducing the code rate of the code. In such a fashion, a system design will always have pros and cons, but our task is to find out an effective one under the given conditions for the system requirements. Therefore, the numbers we searched can provide some guidelines for effective code design.

Fractal/angle multiplexing is a $LiNBO_3$ crystal using a X-Y Galvano mirror, and the random access concept in fractal/angle multiplexing are discussed in this paper. First, the brief introduction of the designed holographic digital data storage system is presented. Then, the average access time concept for the storage system is newly defined, and the comparison of the average access time between the holographic storage and a conventional optical disk is performed. Second, the basic simulation and experiment to find the X-Y Galvano mirror dynamics are conducted. From this analysis, we find that the average access time in our HDDS which has 6 degree scan angle is about 5 msec. This result is very high performance when it compared with the average access time of a conventional optical disk. Finally, some recording results using fractal/angle multiplexing are presented, then, the relationship between bit error rate and angle mismatch for the each multiplexing are discussed.

In this paper, we introduce a modulation code design problem where best selection of two-dimensional codewords are determined to reduce two-dimensional (2D) intersymbol interference (ISI) and interpage interference (IPI). Codeword selection problem is formulated as a quadratic integer programming model that minimizes intra- and inter-symbol differences subject to uniform symbol usage and minimal Hamming distance violations. Second integer programming model detects the occurrence of isolated pixel pattern in the selected codewords. The proposed models are applied to 4-level and 2-level 6/8 codes.
