ERROR PROTECTION FOR MANAGED MEMORY DEVICES
Methods, systems, and devices for error protection for managed memory devices are described. In some examples, a memory system may receive data units from a host device. The data units may include respective sets of parity bits, and the memory system may perform an error detection operation on the data units. A first controller of the memory system may generate a protocol unit using data (e.g., a subset of data) from the data units. The protocol unit may include a set of parity bits (e.g., a different set of parity bits), and a second controller of the memory system may perform an error detection operation on the protocol unit. The second controller of the memory system may generate a data storage unit using data (e.g., a subset of data) from the protocol unit, and may store the data unit and another set of parity bits to a memory device.
MEMORY DEVICE ERROR CHECK AND SCRUB MODE AND ERROR TRANSPARENCY
An error check and scrub (ECS) mode enables a memory device to perform error checking and correction (ECC) and count errors. An associated memory controller triggers the ECS mode with a trigger sent to the memory device. The memory device includes multiple addressable memory locations, which can be organized in segments such as wordlines. The memory locations store data and have associated ECC information. In the ECS mode, the memory device reads one or more memory locations and performs ECC for the one or more memory locations based on the ECC information. The memory device counts error information including a segment count indicating a number of segments having at least a threshold number of errors, and a maximum count indicating a maximum number of errors in any segment.
Memory device with error check function of memory cell array and memory module including the same
A memory device that checks an error of a memory cell and a memory module including the same are disclosed. The memory module includes a first memory device and a second memory device. The first memory device includes a first area in which normal data are stored, and a second area in which error check data are stored. The second memory device stores reliability information about the normal data that is stored in the first area of the first memory device. The first memory device outputs a result of comparing the normal data read from the first area of the first memory device to the error check data read from the second area of the first memory device.
Error correction
Methods, systems, and devices related to mapping a plurality of pairs of bits of a memory transfer block (MTB) to a plurality of linked (LK) die input/output (LDIO) lines coupling a LK die to an interface (IF) die. The plurality of pairs of bits of the MTB can be communicated from the LK die to the IF die via the plurality of LDIO lines. Responsive to a failure of one of the plurality of LDIO lines, a Bose-Chaudhuri-Hocquenghem (BCH) error correction can be performed on the pairs of bits mapped to the failed LDIO line. Each of the plurality of pairs of bits is a respective symbol for the BCH error correction.
Channel-Adaptive Error-Detecting Codes with Guaranteed Residual Error Probability
A method for checking a signal transmission of a specified message with a number of d bits from a sender to a receiver by a control unit using a linear block code generated via a coding tool, a channel model, and a specified linear feedback shift register, which is parameterized via a generator polynomial, wherein the residual error probability of different Markov-modulated Bernoulli processes is calculated, where boundary conditions for signal transmission can be specified by using a characterizing Markov-modulated Bernoulli process and also a linear feedback shift register, where integration of the calculation of the residual error probability is performed in a dynamic, intelligent control circuit such that the respective residual error probabilities can be determined for different generator polynomials.
Communication device and communication method
A method for a first communication device transmitting data to a second communication device, according to one embodiment of the present invention, comprises the steps of: the first communication device generating a safety unique identifier by using a unique identifier of the first communication device and a unique identifier of the second communication device, in order to confirm the validity of connection between the first communication device and the second communication device; the first communication device calculating a data error detection code for detecting an error by using the safety unique identifier and the data; the first communication device generating a packet comprising the data and the data error detection code; and the first communication device transmitting the packet to the second communication device.
Memory device error check and scrub mode and error transparency
An error check and scrub (ECS) mode enables a memory device to perform error checking and correction (ECC) and count errors. An associated memory controller triggers the ECS mode with a trigger sent to the memory device. The memory device includes multiple addressable memory locations, which can be organized in segments such as wordlines. The memory locations store data and have associated ECC information. In the ECS mode, the memory device reads one or more memory locations and performs ECC for the one or more memory locations based on the ECC information. The memory device counts error information including a segment count indicating a number of segments having at least a threshold number of errors, and a maximum count indicating a maximum number of errors in any segment.
System and Method for User Equipment Cooperation
An embodiment method includes receiving, by a first user equipment (UE), a message, for a second UE, transmitted over a plurality of resource blocks (RBs) on behalf of a communications controller and determining a plurality of log-likelihood ratios (LLRs) in accordance with the received plurality of RBs. The method also includes transmitting, a subset of the determined LLRs to the second UE.
Capacity-expanding memory control component
A memory control component encodes over-capacity data into an error correction code generated for and stored in association with an application data block, inferentially recovering the over-capacity data during application data block read-back by comparing error syndromes generated in detection/correction operations for respective combinations of each possible value of the over-capacity data and the read-back application data block.
DATA STORAGE AND RETRIEVAL SYSTEM USING ONLINE SUPERVISED HASHING
A data storage and retrieval system employs online supervised hashing for indexing a data set and retrieving data items therefrom. A hash-based mapping is used to generate hash codes for indexing content items. Data items may be retrieved based on either/both a query label (using corresponding codewords) and the content item itself (using the hash codes). The hash-based mapping is updated using an objective function of distance between the hash codes and respective codewords for labels of labelled content items, preserving semantic similarities of content items. The codewords may be error-correcting codes. Techniques for efficiently updating the index include (1) cycle-based updating and ternary codewords, and (2) reservoir sample-based method of determining when to trigger an update.
