Two-Reader Detection Method for Staggered Dual-Layer Bit-Patterned Magnetic Recording Media

Dual-layer recording doubles the effective areal density of bit-patterned magnetic media, but because both layers are sensed by a common reader, interlayer interference (ILI) is the dominant impairment. This paper presents a two-reader detection method for staggered, dual-layer b...
