| 1. A method of calibrating a notch filter in an optical disk drive's digital servo system, comprising:
digitizing sensor signals from an optical pickup unit within the optical disk drive;
within a digital signal processor, calculating a focus error signal or a tracking error signal from versions of the digitized
sensor signals;
perturbing the digital servo system by adjusting either the focus error signal or the tracking error signal responsive to
a perturbing signal to provide an adjusted error signal;
obtaining a frequency response curve of the adjusted error signal within the digital servo system over a range of frequencies
in response to the perturbation of the digital servo system;
searching the frequency response curve for at least one frequency having a peak frequency response; and
setting notch filter parameters of the notch filter to filter signals in the digital servo system at the at least one frequency.
