Abstract
Systems and methods for constructing concatenated codes for data storage channels, such as holographic storage channels, are provided. The concatenated codes include an outer BCH code and an inner iteratively decodable code, such as an LDPC code or turbo code. The correction power and coding rate of one or both of the codes may be programmable based on the channel characteristics and the desired SNR coding gain. The correction power and/or coding rate of the inner and/or outer code may also be dynamically adjusted in real-time to compensate for time-varying error conditions on the channel.
