  • Abstract
    We present experimental results such as channel response, signal-to-noise ratio, bit-error rate, and wear of anisotropic magnetoresistive (AMR) helical scan read heads compared to respective values of inductive ferrite read heads. The presented measurements indicate the advantages of the AMR head
