Abstract
In this paper, we present a technique of noise analysis for perpendicular and shingled magnetic recording that is variance centric, i.e., with analysis focused on noise power. Measured noise from a home track viewpoint is decomposed into electronic noise, transition noise, nontransition noise, and inter-track interference components. The separation of media noise into transition and nontransition noise components is accomplished by a variance deconvolution technique. Experimental noise analysis is shown for cases of track squeeze, adjacent track erasure, and read head offset. Potential capacity gains are also assessed for the case of electronic noise improvement.
