  • Patent number: 10846174
    Abstract: A method and system of recovering data includes reading reference codewords, which have code correlation with a target codeword, from a memory device when an error-correcting code (ECC) decoding process for a decoder input of the target codeword has failed. A decoder input of a corrected target codeword is generated based on an operation process using the target codeword and the reference codewords. An ECC decoding process is performed again on the decoder input of the corrected target codeword.

  • Patent number: 10693503
    Abstract: A polar code encoding and decoding method includes generating a first and second sub-codewords. The sub-codewords correspond to pre-codewords, and the pre-codewords have a shared data aspect. The sub-codewords provide useful error-recovery for data stored in a memory. When data is read from the memory, decoding takes place. The data read operation may include hard decision decoding, soft decision decoding, or hard decision decoding followed by soft decision decoding. In the method, the shared data aspect is used to decode a first sub-codeword for which decoding was not initially successful. An apparatus is also provided.
