Abstract:
A sequence of symbols is generated to describe a set of write data, the symbols having a length of nT, where T is a channel clock rate and n is an integer over a predetermined range. Bi-directional write currents are applied to a write pole to record the sequence of symbols to a magnetic storage medium. The write pole has an effective footprint with a downtrack length of mT, where m is an integer. The write currents are switched between a first rail current and a second rail current for alternating symbols, the write currents further transitioning to an intermediate current value for at least one channel clock period for symbols longer than 1T. Write currents are applied to the write pole when recording symbols having a length longer than mT using the effective footprint of the write pole as an interval.

Claim (Index 9):
The method of  claim 1 , wherein applying the bi-directional write currents to record a selected symbol having a length greater than the effective footprint further comprises:\n writing a selected symbol to the medium by switching to a selected one of a first rail current and a second rail current at a 1 st  T of the selected symbol; applying an intermediate current value between the first and second rail currents starting at a 2 nd  T of the selected symbol; resuming application of the selected one of the first and second rail currents after applying the intermediate current value; and resuming application of the intermediate current value at an ending portion of the selected symbol prior to switching to the other of the first and second rail currents at a next symbol boundary, the ending portion having a length equal to (m\u22121)T.
