Tracking errors in disk drive systems have a significant repetitive component that is not explicitly taken into account in conventional servo controllers. A modified prototype repetitive controller is applied as a plug-in module to a Winchester disk drive with a preexisting analog feedback controller to demonstrate its efficacy in the reduction of this periodic component. A review of the Winchester disk drive system is included.>
Chew et al. (1990) studied this question.
