Tape head assembly for linear tape open |
摘要 |
A tape head assembly includes a set of data readers configured to simultaneously read data from a set of adjacent data tracks of a tape storage medium, each data track having a width; wherein the width of each data reader of the set along a lateral extension of the tape head assembly is equal to or less than the width of a data track wherein the lateral extension of the tape head assembly is orthogonal to a longitudinal extension of the tape storage medium when arranged in a tape drive containing the tape head assembly spanning at least the set of data tracks during reading; and a servo reader arrangement containing at least one servo reader arranged laterally offset from one of the data readers by less than the width of a data track. |

1. A tape head assembly, comprising:
a set of data readers configured to simultaneously read data from a set of adjacent data tracks of a tape storage medium, each data track having a width; wherein the width of each data reader of the set along a lateral extension of the tape head assembly is equal to or less than the width of a data track wherein the lateral extension of the tape head assembly is orthogonal to a longitudinal extension of the tape storage medium when arranged in a tape drive containing the tape head assembly spanning at least the set of data tracks during reading; and a servo reader arrangement containing at least one servo reader arranged laterally offset from one of the data readers by less than the width of a data track, wherein each servo reader of the servo reader arrangement is offset from the one data reader by an offset=f*wDT, with wDT being the width of a data track, and 0.3≦|f|≦0.7. |
