<p>In a method of accurately measuring various kinds of non-linear transition shifts (NLTSs) in the magnetic recording/reproduction using an MR-type reproducing head, the data of a reference bit-string pattern are sent, as reference signals, to a magnetic disk (2) via a head IC (5) and a magnetic head (3) so as to be magnetically recorded. A first predetermined harmonic component Vnref is measured from the reproduced signals of the record data detected by the magnetic head (3), a bit-string pattern is selected from plural kinds of predetermined bit-string patterns, the data of the selected bit-string pattern are sent, as to-be-measured signals, to the magnetic disk (2), a second predetermined harmonic component Vnpat is measured from the reproduced signals, and the NLTS is calculated from Vnref and Vnpat.</p> |
