AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

This approach leads to more efficient optimization with fewer steps and superior channel settings compared to prior art, even with noisy functions, and is effective in multi-dimensional fields.

Problems solved by technology

Interleaved one-dimensional sweeps and, to a lesser extent, limited two-dimensional sweeps are currently used to optimize read channels but an exhaustive sweep of parameters which are strongly correlated would be prohibitive.
Furthermore, noisy functions defining parameter values can produce sub-optimal results during a sweep.

Embodiment Construction

[0023]Reference will now be made in detail to the subject matter disclosed, which is illustrated in the accompanying drawings. The scope of the invention is limited only by the claims; numerous alternatives, modifications and equivalents are encompassed. For the purpose of clarity, technical material that is known in the technical fields related to the embodiments has not been described in detail to avoid unnecessarily obscuring the description.

[0024]Referring to FIG. 1, a block diagram of a data storage system useful for implementing embodiments of the present invention is shown. The storage system comprises a data storage element 104 connected to a processor 100. The processor 100 executes computer executable program code stored in a memory 102 connected to the processor 100. The computer executable program code configures the processor 100 to optimize read channels to the data storage element 104 according to embodiments of the present invention as described more fully herein.

Abstract

Variations of the Nelder-Mead direct search method are employed to find read channel parameter settings in a discrete field having three or more dimensions. The three or more dimensions correspond to read channel parameters, at least some of which are highly correlated. The steps of the Nelder-Mead method are executed according to a methodology to arrive at substantially optimal parameter settings for a read channel, even where a discrete function defining parameter outcomes is noisy. In some embodiments, dimensional collapse, considered inefficient in a two-dimensional field, is allowed in order to reach an optimal solution in a greater-than-two-dimensional field.

Description

PRIORITY[0001]The present application claims the benefit under 35 U.S.C. §119(e) of U.S. Provisional Application Ser. No. 61 / 989,154, filed May 6, 2014, which is incorporated herein by reference.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]Data storage device read channels have many parameters that require optimization. Interleaved one-dimensional sweeps and, to a lesser extent, limited two-dimensional sweeps are currently used to optimize read channels but an exhaustive sweep of parameters which are strongly correlated would be prohibitive. Better read channel optimization could be achieved if more parameters could be considered during optimization. Furthermore, noisy functions defining parameter values can produce sub-optimal results during a sweep.[0003]Consequently, it would be advantageous if an apparatus existed that is suitable for multi-dimensional optimization of read channel parameters by non-linear search.SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION[0004]Accordingly, the present invention is directed to...
