Zusammenfassung:A method for positioning a magnetic-recording head. The method includes correcting amplitude of each burst signal of a plurality of burst signals read out with the magnetic-recording head from each respective burst pattern of a plurality of burst patterns. In addition, the method includes computing a deviation of the magnetic-recording head from a track based on corrected amplitudes of the plurality of burst signals. Moreover, the method includes positioning the magnetic-recording head on the track based on the deviation of the magnetic-recording head.
