Abstract
In this paper, we investigate the effect of read head profile on the playback signal from data and servo sector in a staggered bit-patterned-media recording system. The scaling of the read head is targeted to achieve better data signal quality while such scaling is shown to have negative effect on the servo signal. A secondary servo burst that uses data samples to generate supplementary PES is then proposed and its feasibility is demonstrated.
