Abstract

In a disc drive, a position error signal (PES) can be generated that is insensitive to the read element's magnetic and physical geometry and micro-track profile, and that has a spatial domain periodic frequency that corresponds to a frequency region of the micro-track profile that facilitates a high magnitude response. The servo pattern for generating this PES includes a first servo burst pair (A,B) and a second servo burst pair (C,D) of servo burst members, each pair written as normal and quadrature channels.
