Abstract
Nonlinear distortions caused by partial erasure and nonlinear transition shifts interacting with inter-symbol interference, are a major hindrance to data storage systems, since they degrade detector performance. This work aims to design and optimize the neuro-fuzzy equalizer (NFE) using the multi-objective genetic algorithm (MOGA) to detect nonlinear high-density magnetic recording (MR) channels. Through the GA-assisted back-propagation algorithm and least mean square optimization, the complexity in terms of decision rules is reduced by 25% and significantly provides 65% lower signal processing computation. When applied to the perpendicular (MR) system, the proposed NFE outperforms existing equalizers such as the neural network-based equalizer, fuzzy logic equalizer, and conventional NFE for the Volterra and jitter media noise channels using 1–3 dB and 1.5–3.5 dB signal-to-noise ratio gains at the bit-error-rate of 10-4, respectively. Furthermore, compared to the other models, the NFE provides a more effective output mean square error performance for retrieving the original bit data.
