Application of linear minimum mean-squared-error equalization for volume holographic data storage.
When target densities of volume holographic data storage systems are increased, the systems experience increased interference from adjacent pixels and noise. Here we present a method for designing and applying linear minimum mean-squared-error (LMMSE) equalization to improve the bit error rates (BER's) and hence the storage densities achievable. Numerical results with five defocused data pages indicate that a significant improvement in the BER is possible with LMMSE equalization.
