a reproducing unit that performs a reproducing process on a magnetic recording medium that includes a servo area where servo data used for detecting a position of a magnetic head on the magnetic recording medium is recorded, and a writable data area, arranged side by side with the servo area in the track direction, on which user data is written by the magnetic head, the servo area including a preamble area where a preamble recording pattern that represents data used for providing a clock synchronization of the servo data is formed by a plurality of magnetic sections, and a burst area where data used for detecting a relative position of the magnetic head with respect to a track center position of the servo data is recorded and on which a single burst recording pattern which is a layout pattern that tilts to the preamble recording pattern with a predetermined tilt angle is formed by a plurality of magnetic sections,

the reproducing unit including

a phase detection unit that detects a phase difference of a burst reproduced signal of the burst area from a reproduced signal of the preamble area, based upon sample values at respective points in the preamble area, which are sampled by using a synchronous clock determined by a reproduced signal processing of the preamble area and a plurality of predetermined coefficients, as phase difference information corresponding to a plurality of phase differences; and

a position detection unit that detects position deviation information indicating a relative distance of the magnetic head from the track center position based upon the phase difference information; and

a speed detection unit that detects a shifting speed in a radial direction of the magnetic head of the magnetic recording medium,

wherein the phase detection unit detects the phase difference information relating to the burst reproducing signal based upon the sample value at each of the points sampled from the burst reproduced signal at a synchronous clock determined by the reproduced signal processing in the preamble area and a plurality of predetermined coefficients, for respective divided gate intervals into which a burst gate interval corresponding to a reproducing process interval for the burst area is divided,

the position detection unit detects deviation information of the magnetic head center from the track center position for each of the divided gate intervals, based upon the phase difference information for each of the divided gates, and detects the position deviation information in the burst gate interval based upon the deviation information for each of the divided gate intervals, and

the speed detection unit detects the shifting speed based upon the deviation information for each of the divided gates and a delay time for rising of the divided gate.
