The performance improvement of the partial response maximum-likelihood (PRML) system for (1, 7) run-length limited (RLL) code is studied. As a new PRML system,PR(1, 1, 0, -1, -1) system called modified E^2 PR4 (ME^2 PR4)followed by Viterbi detector for (1, 7) RLL code is proposed.At first, a determination method of the tap weights in transversal filter to equalize to PR (1, 1, 0, -1, -1) characteristic taking account of a noise correlation is described. And the equalization characteristics of the transversal filter are evaluated. Then,a Viterbi detector for ME^2PR4 utilizing the constraint of run-length of (1, 7) RLL code is presented. Finally, the bit-error rate is obtained by computer simulation and the performance is compared with that of the conventional PRML systems called PR4,EPR4 and E^2PR4 systems with Viterbi detector. The results show that among these systems our system exhibits the best performance and the SNR improvement increases with the increase in the linear density.
