COMPENSATION FOR VIBRATION IN A DATA STORAGE SYSTEM

摘要

A plurality of sensors are used to sense disturbances in a data storage system. An adaptive gain component is associated with each of the sensors and provides a gain for each of the sensor signals. The gain of each sensor signal is adapted, individually, based on a correlation of each given sensor signal to the position error signal. This adaptation produces a position correction signal. The position correction signal is applied to a position signal that is used to position the reading and writing components and the storage medium relative to one another. This compensates for both rotary and linear vibration disturbances at the same time.
