Abstract

A data storage device is disclosed comprising at least one head configured to access a magnetic tape comprising a plurality of servo frames each comprising an A servo burst, a B servo burst, a C servo burst, and a D servo burst. The A servo burst in a first servo frame is read using the head to generate a first read signal which is sampled to generate first signal samples. A first matched filter matched to the A servo burst filters the first signal samples to generate first filtered samples within a first burst window, and the first burst window is updated based on the first filtered samples. The first filtered samples within the first burst window are processed to generate a position error signal (PES), and a position of the head is controlled relative to the magnetic tape based on the PES.
