| Abstract | Skyrmion racetrack memory (Sk-RM) is a new storage technology in which skyrmions are used to represent data bits to provide high storage density. During the reading procedure, the skyrmion is driven by a current and sensed by a fixed read head. However, synchronization errors may happen if the skyrmion does not pass the read head on time. In this paper, a polar coding scheme is proposed to correct the synchronization errors in the Sk-RM. Firstly, we build two error correction models for the reading operation of Sk-RM. By connecting polar codes with the marker codes, the number of deletion errors can be determined. We also redesign the decoding algorithm to recover the information bits from the readout sequence, where a tighter bound of the segmented deletion errors is derived and a novel parity check strategy is designed for better decoding performance. Simulation results show that the proposed coding scheme can efficiently improve the decoding performance. |
