Abstract

A positioning control method of a magnetic disc apparatus is provided which can permit fast and stable settling to a target position without overshoot or undershoot in connection with a moving distance of one track seek to about 16-track seek for which positioning must be determined within a moving time corresponding to a resonance frequency of a mechanical system. Such a method can also generate a position/velocity orbit for reducing power at a specified frequency, provide acceleration feed-forward compensation which can permit a head to accurately reach the target position even when the feedback system does not function under a condition that external disturbance does not act and generate a position orbit corrected by a controlled object model accurately modeling resonance oscillation up to a moving frequency band are used in combination.
