Abstract
A memory system comprises a non-volatile memory device that stores user data and state information regarding the user data. In a read operation of the non-volatile memory device, a memory controller calculates a priori probabilities for the user data based on the state information, calculates a posteriori probabilities based on the a priori probabilities, and performs a soft-decision operation to determine values of the user data based on the a posteriori probabilities.
