A basic data structure in a lead-in area is made coincident with each other in all of a read only type, write once type, and a rewritable type. The lead-in area is divided into a system lead-in area and a data lead-in area. A track pit and a pit pitch of pits in the system lead-in area are made longer than those in the data lead-in area. In the system lead-in area, a reproduction signal from a bit is detected in accordance with a Level Slice technique, and, in the data lead-in area and data area, a signal is detected in accordance with a PRML technique. In this manner, in any of the read only type, write once type, and rewritable type, there can be provided an information recording medium and an information reproducing apparatus or information recording and reproducing apparatus therefor, capable of a stable reproduction signal from a lead-in area of the write once type recording medium while maintaining format compatibility.

A data modulation method to suppress a DC component using parity information of a synchronization codeword, and an apparatus for executing the method. Input data is multiplexed according to multiplexing information, the synchronization codeword including the multiplexing information for a multiplexed data stream is inserted, modulation is performed and plural modulated data streams are output, and a respective one of the modulated data streams having a DC component, which is smallest is selected from among the modulated streams. The synchronization codeword has a bit to control the parity of the codeword, and the input data is multiplexed according to whether a parity of the synchronization codeword is even or is odd. Thus, the DC component included in the modulated codeword stream may be more effectively suppressed without a decrease in a code rate.

A method for allocating codewords is provided. The method includes allocating one of two selectable codewords b1 and b2 as codeword b when a preceding codeword b and a following codeword c form a code stream Y, in which codewords b1 and b2 have opposite INVs which are parameters indicating whether the number of '1s' contained in a codeword is an odd number or an even number and when the code stream of b1 and c is Y1, and the code stream of b2 and c is Y2, allocating codewords such that the INVs of Y1 and Y2 are maintained to be opposite when the codeword, b1, b2 or c should be replaced by another codeword in compliance with a predetermined boundary condition between codewords. According to the method, by using a short codeword having less bits as a main conversion codeword, high efficiency is achieved in recording density. Also, when codewords which do not satisfy the run length conditions are replaced by other codewords, the codewords are allocated so that the DC suppression capability of the code stream can be maintained, and therefore higher DC suppression capability of the code stream is provided.

摘要:
To improve the sync code detection reliability while simplifying the sync code position detection process, when a first pattern as a combination of three successive sync codes (e.g., sync code numbers "2", "1", "0" in sync frame number "00") is compared with a second pattern in which the allocation of sync codes is shifted by one code from the first pattern (e.g., sync code numbers "1", "0", "1" in sync frame number "01"), two or more sync codes are changed (three codes are changed in this example).
摘要:
The present invention relates to a method and system for multi-dimensionally coding and/or decoding an information to/from a lattice structure representing bit positions of said coded information in at least two dimensions. Encoding and/or decoding is performed by using a close-packed lattice structure, preferably a quasi-hexagonal lattice structure. In particular, at least partial quasi-hexagonal clusters consisting of one central bit and a plurality of nearest neighboring bits can be defined, and a code constraint can be applied such that for each of said at least partial quasi-hexagonal clusters a predetermined minimum number of said nearest neighboring bits are of the same bit state as said central bit. Thereby, intersymbol interferences can be minimized at a high code efficiency. Furthermore, another code constraint can be applied such that for each of said at least partial quasi-hexagonal clusters a predetermined minimum number of said nearest neighboring bits are of the opposite bit state as said central bit. This constraint provides an advantageous high pass characteristic to avoid large areas of channel bits of the same type.

A method and apparatus for operating a continous time filter (CTF)(128) of a read/write channel (108) for a hard disk drive (100). The apparatus includes an input muliplexer (220) that receives an analog signal (215) and transmits the analog signal (215) to a read filter (254) when the CTF (128) is in read mode and to a servo filer circuit (256) when the CTF (128) is in servo mode.

The present invention relates to method and apparatus of converting a series of data words into modulated signals. This method generates for each data word a number of intermediate sequences by combining mutually different digital words with that data word, scrambles these intermediate sequences to form alternative sequences, translates each alternative sequence into a (d,k) constrained sequence, measures for each (d,k) constrained sequence not only an inclusion rate of undesired sub-sequence but also a running DSV (Digital Sum Value), and selects one (d,k) constrained sequence having small inclusion rate for recording on an optical or magneto-optical recording medium among the (d,k) constrained sequences having maximum value of running DSV smaller than a preset limit. According to the present invention, efficient DSV control can be achieved for even relatively-long sequences.
