We develop several correlator algorithms for obscured inputs embedded in a
background illumination and correlating with many Biters multiplexed in hol
ographic data storage. Computer simulations, done under zero background ill
umination and high cross-talk, show that it is possible to achieve correlat
ion even when the match between the obscured input signal and the stored in
formation is as small as 0.14%. (C) 1999 Published by Elsevier Science B.V.
