In an optical disk recording method of recording data onto a recordable optical disk which includes a data zone where data is recorded and a management data zone where management data indicating the recorded part of the data zone is recorded, an extended management data zone in which the management data is to be recorded is set in the data zone in response to an extension instruction.
摘要:
Reproduced signals are equalized by the least square technique by using a predetermined number of data samples binarized by a Viterbi decoder. Even when data written on an optical disk is unknown, the data can be equalized in a stable manner and can be reproduced at a low error rate without instability factors such as divergence due to interference.

In an optical disk system using a PRML identification system, a method for deriving an optimum recording wave in a short period of time is provided. Parameters of the recording wave are adjusted by using an evaluation value obtained by a signal evaluation method which is suitable for the PRML identification system as an index. In this case, as a parameter adjusting method, a plurality of adjusting methods are utilized (S1-S3, S5).

摘要:
A two-layer recording type optical disk capable of realizing stable recording and reproduction without being affected by another recording layer and an optical disk apparatus for the two-layer recording type optical disk are provided. In layouts of various areas in the optical disk, a position where a border between a recorded part and an unrecorded part is formed on one recording layer is set so that the position is always separated from a position where a border between a recorded part and an unrecorded part is formed on another recording layer by a predetermined clearance amount. Moreover, to a recording layer farther from an incident surface, test recording or data recording is always performed through a recorded part on a closer recording layer.

摘要:
There is disclosed an information recording medium comprising a guide groove for recording/reproducing information in an information recording region, the information is formed as a recorded mark both in concave and convex portions of the guide groove, management information including address information is recorded by a wobble of the guide groove, and the wobble is formed in such a manner that an offset of a reproducing signal of the recorded mark generated by the wobble of the guide groove is 5.5% or less of an amplitude of the reproducing signal.
摘要:
The numbers of times by which plural types of segments are consecutively arranged are limited, an address reading performance is enhanced and address information is correctly read out based on determination of the number of consecutive segments. A track is divided into physical segments, N (=17) wobble data units of constant length are formed in each physical segment, the wobble data unit (WDU) is defined to include a first unit (P) having a wobble modulation portion in a first half portion, a second unit (S) having a wobble modulation portion in a latter half portion and a third unit (U) having no wobble modulation portion, and the physical segment is defined to have segment types (TYPE 1, 2, 3) which each include the third unit (U) in a certain area thereof without fail and respectively include the first, second and a combination of the first and second units in the remaining areas. In the arrangement on the track, a lower-limit number of times M1 by which the first and second types (TYPE1, TYPE2) are consecutively arranged and an upper-limit number of times M2 by which the second types (TYPE2) are consecutively arranged are limited and the first type (TYPE1) and the second type (TYPE2) are respectively arranged immediately before and after the third type (TYPE3).
