摘要:
A self-servo reference signal including a timing pattern and an oblique phase pattern is transferred in advance on a magnetic disk 1 by magnetic printing. A phase difference detection section 13 detects a phase difference between the two patterns to detect the position of a magnetic head 2. A burst signal generated by a record signal generation section 14 is recorded in a region of the magnetic disk 1 where no self-servo reference signal is recorded. A track pitch calculation section 11 determines a relationship between the reproduction output of the burst signal detected by a reproduction signal processing section 12 and the phase difference detected by the phase difference detection section 13, thus calculating an optimum data track pitch.

A first estimator 13 estimates the position of a head based on a VCM driving signal u1 and a voltage signal Va output from a VCM 6 to output a first head position estimation signal x1est. The first estimator 13 estimates the disturbance acting on a head supporting mechanism 8 to output a disturbance estimation signal τdest. A second estimator 15 estimates the displacement of the head based on a control signal c2 for a fine adjustment actuator 7 to output a displacement estimation signal x2est. The first head position estimation signal x1est and the displacement estimation signal x2est are added together to obtain a second head position estimation signal xest. A position error signal e is generated using a head position signal x obtained by detecting the servo information and the second head position estimation signal xest. A disturbance compensator 10 synthesizes a VCM control signal c1 with the disturbance estimation signal τdest to generate the VCM driving signal u1.

摘要:
A position detector generates a position error signal corresponding to a current position of a head, a position controller generates a position control signal from the position error signal, a voltage detector detects a voltage signal generated when driving an actuator by a driver, a disturbance estimator generates a disturbance estimation signal from a driving signal and the voltage signal, and a corrector outputs the driving signal from the disturbance estimation signal and the position control signal. The disturbance estimator includes a comparator which compares the disturbance estimation signal with a voltage signal and which outputs a deviation signal, and an adder which adds a signal obtained by multiplying an integral signal, which is obtained by integrating the deviation signal, by a first coefficient and a signal obtained by multiplying a proportional signal proportional to the deviation signal by a second coefficient, and which generates the disturbance estimation signal. The disturbance estimation signal suppresses a tracking deviation of the head due to a disturbance such as an inertial force applied to the head actuator and stabilizes head positioning control.

摘要:
A master information carrier has a shape pattern corresponding to an information signal array to be recorded on a magnetic recording medium, and the shape pattern is provided by arraying a ferromagnetic thin film deposited on a nonmagnetic substrate surface. The ferromagnetic thin film is either a soft magnetic film or semihard magnetic film having not more than 40 kA/m coercive force in track length direction of the information signals, and residual magnetization of the ferromagnetic thin film in the track length direction of the information signals is greater than coercive force of the magnetic recording medium. As a result, a master information carrier with superior magnetic recording performance can be obtained.
摘要:
A master information carrier (2) with an arranged pattern formed of a ferromagnetic film in a shape corresponding to information signals is superposed on a magnetic recording medium (1) and the arranged pattern formed of a ferromagnetic film is magnetized with a magnetizing head (6), thus transfer-recording the arranged pattern into the magnetic recording medium as a magnetized pattern. The magnetizing head includes an annular magnetic circuit with a gap, and a strength of a magnetic field applied to the master information carrier by magnetic flux leaking from portions other than the gap is set to be 20% or less of that of a magnetic field applied to the master information carrier by magnetic flux leaking from the gap. Quality deterioration due to various conditions during recording can be prevented and uniform recording with less variation depending on position on the magnetic recording medium is achieved.

The master information carrier comprises a non-magnetic substrate on which a ferromagnetic film is disposed with an embossed pattern. Protrusions of the embossed pattern correspond to a disposition of the digital information signals.Recessed portions of the embossed pattern of the ferromagnetic film are filled with non-magnetic solid material. Alternately, A non-magnetic substrate has an embossed pattern and recessed portions of the embossed pattern correspond to a disposition of the digital information signals. A ferromagnetic film is filled in the recessed portions of the embossed pattern.
