This paper presents the results of servo designs for optical disk drives which consist of a dual-input/single-output (DISO) actuator; both a sledge actuator and a voice coil motor contribute to a radial movement of the spot on the disk. DISO systems are subset of multi-input/multi-output (MIMO) systems and thus the servo engineer can apply the design methods developed for MIMO controller design to the DISO compensator problems. These techniques include H2 , H¡Û and £g-synthesis. However, in order to obtain insights into the controller elements, in this study we prefer the H¡Û loop-shaping approach. Here, the focus is on stability and disturbance rejection. The method is presented for a master-slave control scheme in tracking servo, a parallel scheme in seeking servo, and a unit-feedback scheme in focusing servo. The maximum stability margin can be obtained in H¡Û loop-shaping algorithm. Furthermore, a robust controller guarantees to stabilize it would be carried out. Finally, computer simulation results are provided to show that the shaking disturbance due to the run-out of disk can be significantly attenuated and a good tracking performance can be achieved by the developed controller.
