ABSTRACT:
A digital servo track pattern for a magnetic medium which can be recorded and reproduced by a recording and reproducing system. The servo track pattern has a plurality of digital mark patterns recorded thereon, each of said digital mark patterns having a leading identifier field of digital bits, a trailing identifier field of digital bits and a field of digital synchronizing data located between said leading and trailing identifier fields. The leading identifier field of digital bits is electrically equivalent during reproducing while the medium is moving in a first direction to the trailing identifier field of digital bits while the medium is moving in a direction opposite to said first direction.
