ABSTRACT:
An adaptive video disc record stylus kicker system for inducing limited stylus translations radially across the disc record. Control circuitry responsive to disc track and disc angular sector identification signals automatically calibrates the kicker activation signals to produce a desired kicker induced stylus translation. A microprocessor establishes a table containing kicker control signals for driving the kicker in each sector of the disc. For a given kicker induced stylus translation, the error is calculated between the actual stylus translation and the programmed stylus translation and the control signal for the respective sector is adjusted accordingly. Subsequently the control signals for each of the other sectors are altered proportional to the adjustment made to the particular control signal in accordance with a correlation function.
