Abstract

A data storage device is disclosed comprising a head actuated over a disk comprising tracks defined by servo sectors. A location of the head over the disk is measured based on the servo sectors, and a position error signal (PES) is generated representing a difference between a target location for the head and the measured location for the head. An actuator control signal (ACS) is generated in response to the PES, a disturbance compensation signal (DCS) is generated based on the PES and the ACS, and the DCS is filtered with a disturbance observer filter. The ACS is adjusted based on an output of the disturbance observer filter, and the head is actuated over the disk based on the adjusted ACS. The DCS is filtered with a plurality of band-pass filters, and the disturbance observer filter is adjusted based on the plurality of band-pass filters.
