Abstract
An analysis is given to determine the maximal areal density achievable in digital magnetic recording and the associated optimal bit aspect r atio. Typical transducer-media parameters are selected, a conventional two-path peak detection data channel is modeled, and error probabilit y determined as a function of track density and bit density so that ma ximal areal density and optimal user bit aspect ratio can be determine d.
