Mustafa Nazmi Kaynak has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 10498367
    Abstract: A memory device may include memory components to store data. The memory device may also include a processor that may decode a codeword associated with the data. The processor may receive the codeword and determine whether the codeword is independently decodable using a BCH decoder. The processor may then decode the codeword using the BCH decoder when the codeword is determined to be independently decodable using the BCH decoder. Otherwise, the processor may decode the codeword using a second decoder and the BCH decoder when the codeword is not determined to be independently decodable using the BCH decoder.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 10135465
    Abstract: Apparatuses and methods for error correcting data are provided. A first error correction code (ECC) decoder is configured to decode a first codeword to provide a first result and to decode a second codeword to provide a second result. The decoder is configured to run up to a particular number of iterations to provide each of the results. A second ECC decoder is configured to decode a third codeword to provide decoded data, wherein the third codeword comprises the first result and the second result. An evaluation module is configured to initiate a recovery scheme responsive to the decoded data including an error.

  • Patent number: 7561640
    Abstract: A channel detector includes a belief propagation detector that is coupled to a channel and adapted to receive a channel output and to generate tentative bit decisions based in part on the channel output. The channel detector further includes a causal and anti-causal channel output module coupled to the belief propagation detector and adapted to generate causal and anti-causal channel outputs based on the tentative bit decisions. The channel detector also includes a noise prediction module coupled to the causal and anti-causal channel output module and adapted to predict noise samples based on a difference between the channel output and the causal and anti-causal channel outputs. Further, the channel detector includes a noise prediction module adapted to whiten the channel output with the predicted noise samples and to return the whitened channel output to the belief propagation detector to generate new tentative bit decisions.
