ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for displacing a system that is movable with respect to a carrier of data recorded on a plurality of tracks, including a reading head (TEL.sub.1), which is displaced on a given path the position on which is measured at predetermined sampling instants (kT), characterized in that: (1) at each instant kT, the value of the state vector X0 k/k-1 is predicted, as a function of the measured position x.sub.m (k-1) and of the control voltage u(k-1), which are considered at the preceding sampling instant (k-1)T; (2) the predicted state vector is compared with a reference state vector Wk); and (3) the control voltage u(k) is calculated as a function of a reference control voltage e(k) at the instant kT and of the difference .epsilon. (k) between the predicted state vector and the reference state vector.
