PERPENDICULAR MAGNETIC RECORDING METHOD

摘要

A perpendicular magnetic recording method for recording two kinds of signals on a magnetic recording medium which has perpendicular magnetic anisotropy, recording the first kind of signal on the recording medium with a linear recording density higher than 30 kBPI, and then recording the second kind of signal on that recording track on which the first kind of signal has been recorded, with a linear recording density which is 15 or more kBPI lower than that of the previously-recorded signal, whereby two kinds of signals can be recorded on the same recording medium in such a way that they are superimposed on one another. These two kinds of signals are detected at the same time by one magnetic head and frequency-separated by a reproduced signals processing circuit which is provided with high and low pass filters.
