Fundamentals of the magnetic recording process

The basic phenomena associated with the recording and reproduction of signals on magnetic recording media are described. Fields due to magnetized media and heads are reviewed along with their Fourier transforms. The playback-isolated voltage pulse and square-wave voltage spectrum are discussed in detail for various magnetization orientations. Descriptive models of the recording process are given for both longitudinal and vertical recording.
