Noise and Distortion

AWGN, Colored Noise, Modulation, Thermal Asperities, Disk Defects, etc.

Noise and Distortion Screen
There’s more affecting your system than additive white gaussian noise. Does it matter if the signal into the Viterbi algorithm is clipped? What does a thermal asperity look like in the frequency-domain? The answers are easy to find with PRMLpro's noise and distortion screen.

Generate complex distortion profiles easily for studying the extreme performance bounds of your servo and data recovery systems. Experiment with off-track interference, disk defects, correlated noise and more.
