Abstract

According to one embodiment, in a method for servo demodulation, a first demodulated signal and a second demodulated signal, which are calculated from amplitude values of burst signal patterns of a first area and a second area, are generated in order to generate a position error signal of a reader, based on a servo pattern read from a disk by the reader. Further, in the method for servo demodulation, a square-root of sum of squares of the first and the second demodulated signals is calculated, and an optimal compensation coefficient of a linearity correction function to be used in linearity compensation of the position error signal is calculated based on a maximum value and a minimum value of the square-root of sum of squares.
