Abstract
A technique for blind channel estimation is disclosed herein. A read value that is read from a multi-level storage device is received, as are a set of bins having bin ranges and (for each of the bins in the set) a corresponding portion of read values which fall into that particular bin. One or more of the bin ranges is adjusted such that the received portions of read values remain substantially the same after adjustment and after assignment of the read value to one of the set of bins after adjustment.
