Experimental Considerations in Tracking Control of HDD Dual Stage Actuator

The areal recording density of HDD(Hard Disk Drive) has been increasing by about 60% a year. In order to achieve high areal density, less track pitch is expected and more servo bandwidth is required. Dual stage actuator and servo controller for HDD have been suggested for achieving high track density as a possible solution. Dual-loop servo system is generally classified into a two-input-two-output system, but if we use an estimator for a two-input-two-output system, it can be converted into two input one output system. Since we can't control the dual stage servo system by the classical method, it requires a special technique; for example, Parallel Loop System, Master-Slave Loop System, Decoupled Master-Slave Loop System, and Dual Feedback Loop System. In this paper, we performed experimental evaluations of several types of control algorithm. Further experiments will be made in the future.
