The information such as address is to be efficiently formed into wobble components and further the S/N ratio in reproducing the information formed into the wobble components is to be improved. In an optical disc of the present invention, there are recorded in a wobble the address information modulated in accordance with the MSK (minimum shift keying) system and the address information modulated in accordance with a modulation system in which even harmonics signals are added to a sinusoidal carrier signal and in which the polarity of the harmonics signal is changed depending on the sign of the data for modulation.

It is an object of the present invention to improve reliability of defect management. This is obtained by providing a plurality of management data areas each including a defect management area typically in a lead-in zone of a disc inner-side region enclosed by a circumference having a predetermined radius on a disc-shaped recording medium. In addition, the plurality of the defect management areas are placed at locations, which are separated from each other in the radial direction of the disc-shaped recording medium, sandwiching a recording/reproduction condition adjustment area OPC having a relatively large size. If information stored in one defect management area is found to be different to information stored in another defect management area, then the information in the defect management areas is made uniform by copying the information stored in an earlier defect management area to a later defect management area in a predetermined priority order.

The present invention aims to provide a reproduced signal evaluation method and a write adjustment method for offering a Blu-ray disc having a large storage capacity with excellent media compatibility. An evaluation index L-SEAT is calculated through signed addition using a Euclidean distance difference calculated from at least one of target signals in which a focused edge is shifted to the right and left, and the quality of the reproduced signal is evaluated based on the evaluation index. Write condition adjustment using the index enables write adjustment not depending on SNR and achieving high adjustment accuracy.

In step S1, the address generator generates address information composed of a sync signal which is recorded on an optical disc, address data and an error correction code for the address data, pre-encodes and supplies it to a modulator. At the same time, a carrier signal generator generates a carrier signal which is to carry the address information, and supplies it to the modulator. In step S2, the modulator makes MSK modulation of the carrier signal supplied from the carrier signal generator on the basis of the pre-encoded address information supplied from the address generator, and supplies a resultant MSK modulation signal to a wobbling unit. In step S3, the wobbling unit forms, on the optical disc, a spiral groove wobbled adaptively to the MSK modulation signal supplied from the modulator. In this optical disc, a given address can be accessed quickly and accurately.

In a system using a write-once recording medium, proper operations are carried out while applying an overlap-recording method to front and rear linking areas. Each block used as a recording/reproduction unit is provided with linking portions to overlap in a recording operation. Each manufactured write-once recording medium is evaluated by selecting several mediums from those made at the same manufacturing lot for an inspection purpose. In the evaluation process, first of all, data is recorded onto a selected write-once recording medium in block units with the front linking portion of a next block unit overlapping the rear linking portion of the immediately preceding block unit. Then, the recorded block units are read out from the write-once recording medium and an error rate is measured. If the error rate is not greater than a predetermined value, the write-once recording medium is determined to be a good one. If the error rate is greater than the predetermined value, on the other hand, the write-once recording medium is determined to be a bad one and is rejected.

Thermal stress is prevented from accumulating on a disk recording medium (1). Data to be recorded is divided into 32-kilobyte clusters, and a front link area and a back link area, whose lengths are randomly changed, formed of a total of 8 frames are added before and after the clusters. Then, the data is recorded on a predetermined area of a disk on the basis of address data prerecorded on the disk.

A disk is divided into zones and tracks. There are access points on the disk which are indicated by wobbling address frames. A table stipulates a relationschip between said track numbers within said frames and said zones.

A cluster and a cluster are linked by a link frame. The link area includes postamble, post guard, and a slice/PLL area, as well as a link data area. Substantially the same data as that recorded in clusters is recorded in the link data area. The capacity of a rewritable disc can thus be increased.
