9781852335007: Hard Disk Drive Servo Systems

Synopsis

This monograph provides a systematic treatment of the design of modern hard disk drive servo systems. In particular, it focuses on the applications of some newly developed results in control theory, i.e., robust and perfect tracking control and composite non-linear feedback control, which are suitable for track following and seeking, respectively. Emphasis is placed on hard disk drive servo systems with single- or dual-stage actuation using a voice-coil-motor actuator enhanced in the latter case by the addition of a micro-actuator, providing faster responses and therefore higher bandwidth in track following. Other issues such as disturbance rejection and resonance compensation are also addressed. The techniques and applications involved include: - time- and frequency domain methods for system identification; - linear system tools; - linear control techniques (PID, H2, H-infinity, and robust and perfect tracking control, and loop transfer recovery);- non-linear control techniques (time-optimal, proximate time-optimal and composite non-linear feedback control);- complete single- and dual stage hard disk drive servo systems; - track-following control of voice-coil-motor and dual actuators; - design of piezoelectric actuator systems.Hard Disk Drive Servo Systems should be of great value to practising engineers in the hard disk and CD-ROM drive industries and to researchers in areas related to servo systems.

He is also serving as an Honorary Editor of IEE Proceedings - Control Theory and Applications, and a Regional Editor (Asia-Pacific) of Mechatronics. Doctor Peng's research interests incclude control theory and control applications to hard disk drive servo systems and flight control systems. Doctor Venkataramanan's current research focus is on topics related to hard disk drive servo systems, hyperflexible object manipulation and biological control.

Présentation de l'éditeur

The second edition of this monograph provides a systematic treatment of the design of hard disk drive servo systems updated to reflect recent improvements in spindle speed and bit density and other changes in this fast-moving field. In particular, it focuses on the applications of some newly developed results in control theory, i.e. robust and perfect tracking control and composite non-linear feedback control which are suitable for track following and seeking respectively. Emphasis is placed on hard disk drive servo systems with single- or dual-stage actuation using a voice-coil-motor actuator enhanced in the latter case by the addition of a micro-actuator providing faster responses and therefore higher bandwidth in track following. Modeling and compensation of nonlinearities and friction in microdrives, disturbance rejection and resonance compensation are also addressed. The Linear Systems and CNF MATLAB® toolkits used to develop many of the results can be downloaded from the book's website.
