摘要:
According to one embodiment, a first encoder (12) encodes main information, a second encoder (22) encodes sub-information, a first modulator (62) modulates a carrier based on an output of the first encoder, a duplicating module (104) duplicates an output of the second encoder to generate encoded sub-information units, and a second modulator (64) amplitude-modulates an output of the first modulator based on the encoded sub-information units. The second modulator (64) amplitude-modulates with σ/(µ×(2 N ) 1/2 ) being 0.4 or less, wherein a noise power of a transmission path or a storage medium is σ 2 , a number of the encoded sub-information units is N, signal levels after amplitude modulation, which correspond to bit 1 and bit 0 of the encoded sub-information units, are A and B, and a level difference A - B is µ.

An optical disk apparatus of the invention includes an optical pickup (110) which irradiates an optical disk with a laser beam, a light-reception unit including a first light-reception element and a second light-reception element, the light-reception unit receiving the laser beam reflected from the optical disk to provide a first photodetection signal and a second photodetection signal corresponding to the reflected laser beam, measuring units (400, 500) which receive the first and second photodetection signals from the optical pickup to measure propagation delay time difference between the first and second photodetection signals, a delay unit (600) which delays the first and second photodetection signals based on the signal propagation delay time difference such that delay times of the first and second photodetection signals are equalized to each other, and a signal processing circuit (114) which processes the first and second photodetection signals delayed by the delay unit, and provides the processed signals.

摘要:
An information storage medium (1) has tracks in which information is recorded. The tracks are formed as a groove section (2) and a land section (3). The groove section (2) has a synchronous structure in which wobbles (2a) and (2b) formed on both walls of the groove section (2) are not displaced from each other in the circumferential direction of the medium, and the land section (3) has an asynchronous structure in which wobbles formed on both sides of the land section (3) are displaced from each other. A good signal is reproduced from each of the groove and land sections.
