Abstract :
A method of equalization using a data sequence always present on tape is described. This data sequence is part of the standard LTO format. The equalizer calculation is based on the Levinson Toeplitz matrix inversion method and utilizes cosine pulse symmetrization to achieve results independent of the target-signal phase delay.
