Patent abstract
A controller extracts a distortion component of a readback signal from a magnetic read head. The distortion component may be found using a finite length Volterra series, for example. The controller estimates a clearance between the read head and a recording medium based on the distortion component. This clearance measurement can be used for closed loop fly-height control of the read head.
