A multiple page fully digital holographic data storage system is demonstrated. This system is used to store and retrieve digital image and compressed video data with a photorefractive crystal. Architecture issues related to spatio-rotational multiplexing and novel error-correcting encoding techniques used to achieve low bit-error rates are discussed.
We describe an encrypted holographic data-storage system that combines orthogonal-phase-code multiplexing with a random-phase key. The system offers the security advantages of random-phase coding but retains the low cross-talk performance and the minimum code storage requirements typical in an orthogonal-phase-code-multiplexing system.
We propose a technique for data detection in a two-dimensional page-access optical memory. The technique combines sequence detection by the use of the Viterbi algorithm with decision feedback to improve the bit-error-rate performance in a system corrupted by intersymbol interference. It has an advantage in that it can be operated on a row-by-row basis as data are output from the optical detector. Use of the proposed scheme might ease the design tolerances of the optical components or permit the use of large data pages.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
