HIGH DENSITY VIDEO RECORDING EXPERIMENTS

High Density Pcm Magnetic Tape Recording

The Bell & Howell Enhanced-NRZ recording reproducing technique for bit packing densities up to 40,000 per track inch is described in this paper. Utilization of the pulse code modulation format of Enhanced-NRZ achieves this high density with a bit error rate of one in ten million. Bell & Howell’s standard VR-3700B instrumentation tape recorder and wideband instrumentation recording tape are used...

Tracking Individual Targets in High Density Crowd Scenes Analysis of a Video Recording in Hajj 2009

In this paper we present a number of methods (manual, semi-automatic and automatic) for tracking individual targets in high density crowd scenes where thousands of people are gathered. The necessary data about the motion of individuals and a lot of other physical information can be extracted from consecutive image sequences in different ways, including optical flow and block motion estimation. ...

Experiments with a high-density positronium gas.

We have created a high-density gas of interacting positronium (Ps) atoms by irradiating a thin film of nanoporous silica with intense positron bursts and measured the Ps lifetime using a new single-shot technique. When the positrons were compressed to 3.3 x 10(10) cm-2, the apparent intensity of the orthopositronium lifetime component was found to decrease by 33%. We believe this is due to a co...

Reduced-Complexity Turbo Equalization for High-Density Magnetic Recording Systems

This paper considers a decision-feedback-equalizer (DFE)-based soft decision detector as an alternative for the Bahl–Cocke–Jelinek–Raviv (BCJR) front-end for a coded magnetic recording channel. In previous work, a bidirectional-arbitrated DFE (BAD) was shown to perform in between a BCJR detector and a minimum mean-square error DFE. We propose a soft-output BAD (S-BAD) which takes advantage of t...
