Design and Implementation of Dual-stage Track-following Control for Hard Disk Drives
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper discusses the design and implementation of two track-following controllers for dual-stage hard disk drive servo systems. The first controller is designed by combining an outer loop sensitivity-decoupling (SD) controller with an inner loop disturbance observer (DOB). The second is designed by combining mixed H2/H∞ synthesis techniques with an add-on integral action. The designed controllers were implemented and evaluated on a disk drive with a PZT-actuated suspension-based dual-stage servo system. Position error signal (PES) for the servo system was obtained by measuring the slider displacement with an LDV and injecting a simulated track runout.

Dual-stage Actuator Design for Hdd Systems via Cnf Control
Dual-stage actuator design for hard disk drives via composite nonlinear feedback control is presented, which consists of a primary actuator, the voice coil motor and a secondary actuator, the suspension piezoelectric microactuator. The first is effective in both track seeking and following stages to produce fast rising time and low overshoot and the latter works in track following stage only to...

This paper discusses short seeking control for a dual-actuator hard disk drive consisting of a coarse actuator (voice coil motor, VCM) and a fine actuator (piezoelectric actuator, PZT). A novel design method is proposed based on the dual-stage track following control and initial value adjustment (IVA). This method, which adjusts the initial values of the track-following controllers for short se...

This paper proposes controller design methods, specially for track-following control of the magnetic read/write head in a hard disk drive (HDD). The servo system to be considered is a general dual-stage multisensing system, which encompasses most of the track-following configurations encountered in the HDD industry, including the traditional single-stage system. For the general system, a robust...
متن کاملModeling product variations in hard disk drive micro-actuator suspensions
The increase in aerial storage capacities of future magnetic hard disk drives has fostered the use of dual-stage actuators for high track density data recording. In a hard disk drive with a dual-stage actuator the standard rotary actuation of the voice coil motor is combined with an additional micro or milli actuation to accomplish high-bandwidth and highly accurate track following. In order to...
