Disk Application

Using this application, you can easily create test signals fo r reading or writing data
from/to hard disk media.
Signals are created using the following process:
Input binary bit pattern expressed by 0 and 1.
Convert the input pattern and estimat e the posi tions of the gene rated pulse an d
polarity.
Superpose an isolated pulse in the position estimated above. The pulses shift
during superpose.
