Reliability-Based Reed-Solomon Decoding for Magnetic Recording Channels

The performance of soft-decision Reed-Solomon decoding using belief propagation (BP) is investigated on partial-response equalized magnetic recording channels. A simplification of the BP algorithm, which can be viewed as a Chase-type algorithm, is presented and analyzed
