As is known that one of the most important performance measures for SSTW is
the track misregistration or TMR, the total amount of random fluctuation about the
desired track location. TMR is used to judge the required accuracy of posi tioning. To
achieve a hig h posi tioning accuracy, one way in servo control is to minimize TMR,
which is expressed as the standard deviation of the true PES, i.e.

Thus, the control design problem to minimize TMR can be treated as a 2-D H
2
optimal control problem, which is stated as follows: find a 2-D ou tput feedback
controller of th e form in (12.9)−(12.10) for the SSTW plant P (s) such th at the
closed-loo p system is stabl e and the H

performance kT

is minimized.
The problem of minimizing the TMR of the SSTW process is thus formulated as
the 2-D H
2
control pro blem. A 2-D H
2
controller wi ll subsequently be design ed to
minimize the track mis-registrati on. Note that since the 2-D controller stabilizes the
system, it also contains the error propagation. Thus, the 2-D H
2
control approach
simultaneously addresses the error pr opagation and TMR minimization prob lems,
which is different from the previous 1-D method where the problems are addressed
separately b y feedback and feedforward controls.

12.7.1 Simulation results
The simulation block diagram on 2-D control is shown in Figure 1 2.14. The sim-
ulation is carried out in MATLAB/Si mulink. I n the simulation , the sector number
K = 270, the spindle rotational speed is 7200 RPM, and thus the sampling fre-
quency i s 270 × (7200/60) = 32400 Hz.
To show the capability of the designed 2-D controller to prevent the error propa-
gation, 100 tracks are propagated in the simulation. The results show that the SSTW
process is stabi lized and the error propagation is contained. The σ value of PES
NRRO is plotted versus the track number in Figure 12.15, which implies that the
error amplitude is oscillating steadily.
