Abstract

A disk drive is disclosed comprising a disk comprising a plurality of servo tracks, wherein each servo track comprises a plurality of servo sectors, and an actuator for actuating a head over the disk in response to an actuator control signal. The servo sectors are read to generate a first sequence of control samples x[k] at a sample frequency corresponding to a frequency of the servo sectors. A hybrid upsample filter is used to upsample by a factor of N the first sequence of control samples x[k] to generate a second sequence of control samples y[ki], wherein the hybrid upsample filter provides a higher phase gain than a zero-order type upsample filter at frequencies less than one kilohertz, and approximately the same attenuation as a first-order type upsample filter around the sample frequency. The actuator control signal is generated in response to the second sequence of control samples y[ki].
