    摘要: A system and method for processing track identifier errors to mitigate head instability in data storage devices is disclosed. The system and method includes computing a track id differential between an expected track id and a received track id, encoding the expected track id and the received track id, initiating a first action if the track id differential exceeds a pre-determined threshold and the encoded expected track id varies from the encoded received track id by a pre-configured number of bits, and initiating a second action if the track id differential does not exceed the pre-determined threshold or the encoded expected track id does not vary from the encoded received track id by a pre-configured number of bits.

    摘要: A magnetic disk drive having a reduction in repeatable runout (RRO) effects is disclosed. The disk drive has a head disk assembly (HDA) and a sampled servo controller. The HDA includes a rotating magnetic disk, an actuator, and a transducer head. The magnetic disk has a plurality of embedded servo sectors for storing servo information including repeatable runout (RRO) cancellation values and RRO cancellation value error correction code (ECC) data at a servo data rate. The RRO cancellation value ECC data is only for detecting and correcting errors in the RRO cancellation values. In between the embedded servo sectors are data sectors for storing user data at a user data rate that is different from the servo data rate. The actuator positions the transducer head in response to a control effort signal generated by the sampled servo controller based on the servo information.

    摘要: In an OFDM system, multiple (M) interlaces are defined for M non-overlapping sets of frequency subbands, and M slots with fixed indices are also defined. Data streams and pilot are mapped to slots, which are in turn mapped to interlaces based on a slot-to-interlace mapping scheme that can achieve frequency diversity and good performance for all slots. At a transmitter, a slot-to-interlace converter maps the slots to the interlaces. The slot-to-interlace converter includes multiple multiplexers and a control unit. The multiplexers map the M slots to the M interlaces based on the slot-to-interlace mapping scheme. The control unit generates at least one control signal for the multiplexers. The multiplexers may be arranged and controlled in various manners depending on the slot-to-interlace mapping scheme. At a receiver, a complementary interlace-to-slot converter maps the interlaces to the slots.

    摘要: The present invention may be embodied in a disk drive comprising a rotating magnetic media having tracks identified by binary codewords, and in a related method. Each track codeword for a particular track within a contiguous band of tracks differs from a track codeword for an adjacent track within the contiguous band of tracks by a defined number of bits, and differs from a track codeword for a nonadjacent track within the contiguous band of tracks by at least the defined number of bits. The defined number N of bits is greater than four such that at least two bit errors may be corrected when reading a track codeword.

    摘要: A system and method for processing track identification data in a disk drive having concentric tracks each having a track identification field (TIF) stored in embedded servo sectors, the TIF includes a band segment identifying a group of tracks, and an index segment identifying a single track of the group of tracks. The system and method include reading a servo sector to obtain the TIF, parsing the TIF to obtain the band segment, comparing the obtained band segment to an expected band segment to obtain a band segment differential (BSD), initiating an action if the BSD exceeds a pre-determined threshold and varies from the expected band segment by a predetermined number of bits, initiating another action if the BSD exceeds the predetermined threshold and does not vary from the expected band segment by the predetermined number of bits. The process is then applied to the index segments of the band segment.
