The best engineering and science professionals know the value of utilizing outside experts and of getting different points-of-view on complex issues. ChannelScience is frequently the partner of choice to provide subject matter expertise in data storage, detection, signal processing, coding, MATLAB® development, and custom technical training.
ChannelScience has a deep practical and theoretical understanding of partial-response maximum-likelihood (PRML) sequence detection architectures and iterative algorithms. Services are provided for evaluating, designing, optimizing, understanding, and using PRML read channels for magnetic disk and tape, optical disk and tape, 2-dimensional systems, and even emerging MEMS-based and holigraphic storage devices.
Our flagship product, PRMLpro™, provides the industry with an independent system-level tool for design, test and evaluation of key components and of the data storage device itself. Emerging component suppliers evaluate and improve the performance of their products using PRMLpro™'s system-level metrics such as bit error rate (BER), instead of proxy measurements like amplitude and pulsewidth. Furthermore, this is accomplished without the high cost of a large channel research staff.
PRMLpro™ also provides a very repeatable and sensitive system-level metric for the study of errors, such as thermal decay effects.
Instructor-led training on PRML read channels is provided by ChannelScience through our training partner, KnowledgeTek.
In addition, ChannelScience's experience, clarity, and inventiveness are sought for entirely new areas -- where new sensor applications can benefit from advanced signal processing and detection algorithms.
