摘要： A method and system for alerting a driver of a commercial vehicle or private vehicle, such as a truck or automobile, of an approaching emergency vehicle, such as a police or fire vehicle, and vice versa. The system includes a navigation information system in each vehicle, a transmitter in the second vehicle, a receiver in the first vehicle, a processing system, and a warning system in the first vehicle. Each navigation information system provides data that describe the geographic position and speed of the vehicle. The receiver in the first vehicle receives the navigation information transmitted by the second vehicle. The processor and associated electronics in the first vehicle determines the position and direction of travel of the second vehicle relative to the first vehicle. The warning system in the first vehicle provides a suitable indication to alert the driver if it is determined that the two vehicles are likely to collide.

摘要： Raised irregularities in a magnetic data storage disk are removed by contacting an MR head with the relatively softer irregularity to abrasively erode the irregularity. The MR head may be brought into contact with the irregularity, for example, by selectively increasing read bias current of the head to expand the head toward the disk. Advantageously, removal of such imperfections helps eliminate thermal asperities created when the head inadvertently contacts raised irregularities during reading of data.

摘要： An apparatus and method reduce the transfer of vibration to and/or from a data a data transfer mechanism in a data storage device by coupling an adaptive mount responsive to an electrical stimulus to the data transfer mechanism. In one embodiment of the invention, a controller reads a signal that relates to the position error of a read/write component in a data transfer mechanism, applies an algorithm, and varies the damping of an adaptive mount coupled to the data transfer mechanism. The controller may be further configured to report an error to a host system that identifies a substandard data transfer mechanism so that such data transfer mechanism can be repaired or replaced.

摘要： Input signals are electronically watermarked using an uneven or non-uniform sampling rate. The uneven or non-uniform sampling may be pseudo-random. The uneven or non-uniform sampling meets the Nyquist criterion so that aliasing and loss of content are avoided. The resulting sampling pattern in the sampled data is detectable by a comparison with the original source data.

摘要： An apparatus and method of controlling an actuator of a data storage device detect and/or correct narrowband mechanical excitations such as due to spindle bearing defects through sensing and/or rejecting disturbance frequencies associated with such narrowband mechanical excitations in an actuator control signal generated by a data storage device controller. A narrowband filter may be used to reject, from an actuator control signal generated by a data storage device controller, a disturbance frequency associated with a spindle bearing defect in a data storage device, and disposed in proximity to a zero crossover frequency associated with the data storage device controller. In addition, a peak filter disposed in a control loop of a data storage device controller may be configured to detect a spindle bearing defect in a data storage device by detecting an amplitude of a control signal in the control loop in proximity to a disturbance frequency associated with the spindle bearing defect.

摘要： A method of burnishing a rear pad of a slider within a disk drive. The rear pad is formed of a burnishable material and maintains elements for reading and writing. The disk drive further includes a spindle motor rotatably driving a disk and an actuator assembly positioning the slider over a surface of the disk. With this in mind, the method includes rotating the disk. The slider is moved in a radial fashion relative to the disk surface in a reciprocal fashion, causing the rear pad to rock. As the rear pad rocks, contact between the rear pad and the disk surface burnishes the rear pad. As a result, a positive camber is imparted in the rear pad relative to the MR element. The above-described method can be practiced following initial manufacture of the disk drive, or at various times over the life of the disk drive. Regardless, the method is practiced in-situ and is therefore very fast, cheap, and adapts quickly to the particular disk in which the slider is flying.

摘要： A method, apparatus and computer program product are provided for head crash predictive failure analysis based upon slider track misregistration measurement using the readback signal. A transducer head is selected. Then the transducer head is positioned off-track. A readback signal is obtained from the transducer head positioned off-track. The readback signal is processed and compared with historical values to identify head disk interference. The processing of the readback signal includes amplifying the readback signal using arm electronics. The amplified readback signal is demodulated to provide a demodulated signal that is proportional to its amplitude. The demodulated signal is bandpass filtered using a bandpass filter having a selected center frequency for the selected transducer head.
