ABSTRACT:
In one embodiment a tape drive system comprises a reel adapted to engage a tape cartridge, the tape cartridge comprising a tape media having a servo code written along a length of the tape media, a tape head comprising at least one servo element to detect the servo code, a drive assembly to induce relative motion between the tape and the tape drive, a servo system to control the lateral and longitudinal motion between the tape and the tape head, the servo system comprising a sampling module to sample servo data from the tape media, and a position signal processor to calculate a position signal using the servo data from the sampling module, wherein the position signal processor calculates a position signal based on each adjacent servo element set.
