Abstract
A system and method for decoding magnetic media. Parallel decoders, each with a different equalization magnitude, are used to decode a read signal. A Viterbi metric is used to determine the direction and magnitude of equalization shift that best compensates for a systematic separation, such as pole tip recession. If optimal equalization has changed, the equalization coefficients of the decoders is shifted to compensate.
