Abstract

A disk drive is disclosed comprising a servo control system operable to actuate a head over a disk. A sensor signal is filtered with a first filter comprising a frequency response, and the filtered sensor signal is filtered to generate a compensated sensor signal. An error signal is filtered with a second filter comprising the frequency response, and an adaptation control signal is generated based on the compensated sensor signal and the filtered error signal. An adaptive filter is adapted in response to the adaptation control signal, wherein the adaptive filter filters the sensor signal to generate feed-forward compensation values. The feed-forward compensation values are applied to the servo control system to compensate for the disturbance. A disturbance signal that represents the disturbance is generated, and the frequency response of the first and second filters is optimized based on the sensor signal and the disturbance signal.
