Introduction Lateral tape motion (LTM) is the time-dependent displacement of magnetic tape perpendicular to the tape transport direction. Lateral tape motion may cause track misregistration between the read/write head and a previously written track, thereby limiting the recording density that can be achieved [1]. Currently, the track density of typical magnetic tape drives is approximately 40 t...

Introduction As track density in tape recording systems increases, the need for high performance control becomes crucial due to significant high frequency disturbances such as lateral tape motion, inner track variability, servo track variability, noise and input saturation of the servo actuator. An essential step in designing high performance model based controllers is the identification of low...

ASME/JSME Joint Conference on Micromechatronics for Information and Precision Equipment (MIPE 2006) Santa Clara, CA, June 21-23, 2006 MODELING AND ROBUST CONTROL FOR HARD DISK DRIVES

This paper demonstrates modeling and control designs that reflect the performance objectives for hard disk drive actuators in terms of of desired control bandwidth. Control-relevant modeling is accomplished by using information of appropriate weighting functions applied in the control design. The control design is based on standard H∞ optimization and requires an upper bound on the characteriza...
