According to an example embodiment, an electronic device includes a display; a communication circuit; a battery; a current sensor configured to measure a charge current used for charging the battery; and a processor, wherein the processor may be configured to measure a charge current using the current sensor, to determine a leakage state of the battery based on at least a part of the charge current, and to provide a notification corresponding to the leakage state through the display and/or perform a specified function corresponding to the leakage state based on at least a part of the leakage state.

Control method and electronic device based on battery leakage state

An error flag generation apparatus and method for error correction, wherein the apparatus includes: a frame-sync error memory which stores frame-sync error information for each data block; a BIS (Burst Indicator Subcode) error flag memory which stores a BIS error flag for each data block; and an error flag generator, which generates an error flag indicating error existence/absence for ECC (Error-Correction Coding) data with reference to the frame-sync error information stored in the frame-sync error memory and the BIS error flag stored in the BIS error flag memory.

Apparatus and method generating error flag for error correction

An apparatus, method, and an optical storage medium to generate an error correction block include a data block generation unit processing digital data on a byte-by-byte basis and arranging the processed digital data from 0to (N&#x2212;1)columns and from 0to (M&#x2212;1)rows to form (M&#xd7;N) data blocks. A matrix block generation unit arranges the (M&#xd7;N) data blocks in K rows according to a data transmission sequence to form a matrix block. A first codeword generation unit adds a first error correction check word of 2&#xd7;K bytes to each of N columns to form a first codeword of ((K&#xd7;M)+2&#xd7;K) bytes. A second codeword generation unit adds a second error correction check word of P bytes to each of ((K&#xd7;M)+2&#xd7;K) rows to form a second codeword of (N+P) bytes.

Error correction code block generating method and apparatus and optical storage medium containing error correction code block

An optical recording medium, a data recording or reproducing apparatus, and a data recording or reproducing method used by the data recording or reproducing apparatus. In a method of recording data on an optical disc, each of a plurality of error correction code (ECC) blocks is divided into a plurality of partitions. Next, data from the partitions is interleaved so that each of the ECC blocks is alternately and equally selected to generate a recording block. The generated recording block is modulated and recorded on an optical disc. As a result, the optical recording medium, the data recording apparatus, and the data recording method used by the apparatus are compatible with the format of a conventional digital versatile disc (DVD) and have higher error correction rates. In a reproducing method, the recording block is deinterleaved.

Optical recording medium, data recording or reproducing apparatus and data recording or reproducing method used by the data recording or reproducing apparatus

A decoding method and an apparatus operate by performing error correction on code words of an error correcting code block in one direction selected from a row direction and a column direction, indicating in error flags the remaining code words except at least some code words from code words having uncorrectable errors, and performing error correction on code words in the other direction based on the error flags. Accordingly, errors that have been conventionally considered as being uncorrectable may now be corrected.

Decoding method and apparatus therefor

Provided is a method of recording data on an optical recording medium having a plurality of addressable unit areas. 62 sync frames, each having a sync code and data, can be recorded in each of the addressable unit areas. Thus, user data can be recorded on a recordable optical disc at a higher density.
