    Abstract: A hard disk drive uses a second, reference burst field in a preamble to estimate burst phase and burst magnitude. Such estimations are used for position error signal integration and repeatable runout correction. Gain error is also derived from such estimations. Information contained in a preamble field is used in conjunction with the reference burst phase estimation to synchronize servo address marks.

    Abstract: Sliding-window based data processing includes receiving an analog signal, converting the analog signal to a series of digital samples synchronous to a sampling clock, performing a first discrete Fourier transform on a first portion of the series of digital samples, performing a second discrete Fourier transform on a second portion of the series of digital samples, performing a third discrete Fourier transform on a third portion of the series of digital samples, generating a first series of zero phase start values by calculating a zero phase start value based on the first discrete Fourier transform in a sliding-window at a series of time increments across the servo preamble, storing the zero phase start values, and averaging the stored zero phase start values at the end of the servo preamble.

    Abstract: Improved threshold adaptation is provided for a predefined pattern in data. A detection threshold employed by a Euclidean detector to detect a pattern (such as a Servo Address Mark) in data is adapted by determining a minimum Euclidean distance metric Dp before the pattern is declared in a given portion of the data; determining a Euclidean distance metric Ds at a time when the pattern is found in the given portion, wherein at least one of the patterns is found using a Hamming detector; determining, for a plurality of the portions, a minimum Dp value, Dpmin, that is a substantial minimum Dp value for the plurality of portions and a maximum Ds value, Dsmax, that is a substantial maximum Ds value for the plurality of portions; and determining the detection threshold based on the minimum Dp value, Dpmin, and the maximum Ds value, Dsmax. The detection threshold is optionally based on a configurable margin gain value.
