Abstract

A method and apparatus for holographic storage with combined orthogonal phase codes and random phase codes are provided in which a reference beam (18) is encoded with a combination orthogonal phase code and random phase code by a phase encoder (28). A data pattern is imposed on an object beam (20) by pattern encoder (38). Both the reference beam (18) and the object beam (20) are directed to a particular stack site on a storage medium (32).
