摘要： Method for operating a storage device with a tape (TP) and a head (HU) which is operable to read and/or write data from and respectively to the tape (TP). The tape (TP) is moveable in a predetermined longitudinal direction (X). At least two consecutive current lateral tape positions (y x (t1), y x (t 2 )) of the tape (TP) with respect to a predetermined reference point (REF) are determined at a predetermined longitudinal capture position. A tape skew ( θ ) of the tape (TP) is determined dependent on the at least two determined lateral positions (y x (t1), y x (t 2 )). The tape skew ( θ ) represents an angle between a current tape motion direction (TMD) of the tape (TP) and the longitudinal direction (X). A skew control signal ( U ∂ ) is determined dependent on the determined tape skew ( θ ). A rotational head position ( ∂) of the head (HU) is controlled dependent on the skew control signal ( U ∂ ) to align the head (HU) to the current tape motion direction (TMD) in such a way that the head (HU) is operable to read and/or write data.

摘要： A method for monitoring a plurality of servo channels, providing a finite state machine ("FSM") comprising a single servo channel mode and a combined servo channel mode, and moving a sequential information storage medium comprising a plurality of servo bands across a read/write head comprising a corresponding plurality of servo sensors. The method further asserts an acquisition flag by a servo channel if that servo channel is tracking a servo pattern, and asserts a bit flag by a servo channel if a new LPOS bit is decoded. If at least one acquisition flag is asserted, the method determines if a bit flag is asserted by a servo channel associated with said asserted acquisition flag, and if an acquisition flag and a bit flag are asserted by a servo channel, the method determines a relative positioning of each servo sensor with respect to an associated servo pattern.

摘要： Servo control methods and apparatus are provided for a tape drive (1) where a read/write head (2) reads and writes data on magnetic tape (3) with at least one servo track for providing transversal position information. At least two servo readers (S) are associated with the read/write head (2), each arranged for reading a said servo track during read/write operations. The servo readers (S) are operative concurrently to generate respective servo read signals (r). A position estimator (8) processes each servo read signal (r) to generate a series of position values, corresponding to respective time instants, indicative of transversal position of the associated servo reader (S). A servo controller (10) calculates from the position values and time instants a skew value (θ), indicative of tape skew relative to the read/write head (2), and a tension variation value (AT) indicative of variation of tape tension from a reference value. The servo controller (10) is adapted to account for cross-coupling between tape skew and tension variation in the joint calculation of the skew and tension variation values. Where three servo readers (S) are operative concurrently, the servo controller (10) can be adapted to account for time dependency of tape skew and tension variation and to calculate respective time derivatives (θ\ AT') for the skew and tension variation values (θ, AT). The calculated values can then be used to make compensatory adjustments to tape tension and tape skew relative to the read/write head (2).

摘要： In a receiver for signals in a multilevel partial response class-IV communication system, the coefficients of a digital adaptive equalizer need to be updated to minimize the error due to noise and signal distortion. After initial convergence of the equalizer coefficients to near-optimum settings, an estimate of the mean-square error gradient for coefficient updating can be obtained in decision-directed mode from an estimate of the error signal. In the absence of a reference signal, initial convergence must be achieved in self-training mode. The decision-directed error signal is then replaced by a pseudo-error signal for the computation of an approximation of the mean-square error gradient. The invention provides a particular self-training procedure which outperforms known methods in terms of speed of convergence and achieved mean-square error values, and does not require timing recovery prior to equalizer convergence.

摘要： Methods and apparatus are provided for detecting L-bit sync words occurring at N-bit intervals in PPM-encoded servo pattern read signals read from magnetic tape (3) in tape drives (1). A soft output detector (11) processes the PPM-encoded servo pattern read signal to produce a series of soft output samples corresponding to respective bits encoded in the servo pattern. A sync word detector (12) then produces block correlation values for respective positions of a sliding L-sample block in the soft output sample series. The block correlation values are produced by calculating, at each block position, bit correlation values indicating correlation between respective samples and corresponding bits of the sync word, and summing each bit correlation value minus a predetermined function of the corresponding sample value. The sync word detector (12) then detects a sync word at the block position with the maximum block correlation value in an (N+L-1)-sample sequence of the soft output sample series.
