ABSTRACT:
A method of reducing the effect of vibrations associated with seek operations is disclosed. A feedforward filter is adjusted. A cancellation signal is then generated utilizing an adjusted feedforward filter, wherein the cancellation signal models a resonance of a vibration mode. The cancellation signal is provided at an actuator control signal, thereby inducing a force applied to an actuator such that the force holds the actuator at a track center position while vibrations occur during hard disk drive operations.
