Abstract
Various embodiments provide the position error signal (PES) that is generated by the data read channel that uses internal signals such as analog-to-digital signals, recovered data bits and signals or other internal signals to determine read head off-track metrics. Several different metrics can be utilized including a normalized norm metric, a normalized cross correlation metric, and a cross correlation with detected data metric. These metrics can be utilized to determine off-track shift of one or more read heads such that the read head position can be corrected.
