摘要:
An optical disc apparatus and method for recording and reproducing information to/from an optical disc, including discrimination of the optical disc, reading control information in an un-recordable area formed in an inner periphery of the optical disc, conducting focus control based on a focus error signal in a recordable area formed outside of the un-recordable area, and determining an optimum offset value of the focus error signal in the recordable area. Further, adjustment in amplitude of a reproduced signal from an inner periphery of the recordable area is conducted, test-writing in the inner periphery of the recordable area is conducted, test-writing in an outer periphery of the recordable area is conducted, and adjustment in amplitude of a reproduced signal from the outer periphery of the recordable area is conducted. The respective operations are conducted sequentially so as to make the optical disc in a reproducible and recordable condition.

An optical disc apparatus having at least two optical condenser lens for recording and reproducing information of an optical disc, comprising: means for discriminating the optical disc; means for reading control information in a ROM area which is formed in an inner periphery of said optical disc; means for conducting focus control in a RAM area which is formed outside of said ROM area; means for conducting adjustment in amplitude of a reproduced signal from an inner periphery of said RAM area; means for conducting a pre-writing (a sample-writing); means for conducting test-writing in the inner periphery of said RAM area; means for conducting test-writing in an outer periphery of said RAM area; and means for conducting adjustment in amplitude of a reproduced signal from the outer periphery of said RAM area, wherein said means conducts the respective operations sequentially, thereby making said optical disc in reproducible and recorable condition, with a short time period and with a smooth confirmation operation.
摘要:
For a disk of a land/groove scheme with land tracks and grooves appearing alternately, in order to enable stable and reliable reproduction of information as recorded on a disk by stably and reliably detecting a specific position at which a land track and groove change therebetween, a technique is employed for detecting the position whereat one land track is changed to a groove, or vice versa, by utilizing an HPP signal rather than an RF signal in cases where an optical head 103 attempts to reproduce certain information at the pit formation position of a disk 101. In addition, detect the polarity--positive or negative--of a pit signal appearing in the HPP signal, and then detect the position whereat the land track and groove change therebetween based on the position at which the order or sequence thereof changes, thereby permitting effectuation of optical head's tracking control and focus control by a method suitable for its respective parts.
摘要:
An optical recording method for an optical medium including a disk-like substrate, a spiral or concentric-shaped groove structure along a track formed on the disk-like substrate, the groove structure being wobbled in a radial direction of the optical medium, the track being divided into a plurality of units in the track direction by at least one radial boundary line, at least two adjacent units in the radical direction of the medium comprise one zone, the optical medium including a plurality of zones, and the groove structure included in the adjacent units within at least one zone having substantially a same number of wobbling. The method includes providing the optical medium, and recording information on the optical medium by irradiating an optical spot thereon.
摘要:
A recording method for an optical medium including a disk-like substrate, a spiral or concentric-shaped groove structure along tracks formed on the substrate, each of the tracks being divided into a plurality of units, each of the units including a dropout portion of the groove structure which is a non-groove portion along the track in a circumferential direction of the track, the groove structure being wobbled in a fixed cycle in a radial direction which continues in the circumferential direction along the track. When the wobble is formed in the circumferential direction of the track, the dropout portion is formed so that a phase of the wobble is continued with a phase of the wobble of the groove structure within another unit adjacent to the dropout portion. The method includes providing the optical medium, and recording information by irradiating an optical spot on the medium.
摘要:
An apparatus for reproducing information recorded on an optical recording medium, including a disk-like substrate, a spiral or concentric-shaped groove structure along tracks formed on the substrate, each of the tracks being divided into a plurality of recording units. Each of the recording units includes a dropout portion in a circumferential direction of the groove structure with the dropout portion being a non-groove portion. The groove structure is formed with a wobble in a fixed cycle in a radial direction which continues in the circumferential direction along the track. Each length of the recording units is an integer multiple of the cycle of the wobble. The apparatus includes an irradiation source for irradiating a light spot on the medium, an optical detector for detecting a reflected light from the medium, and a reproducer for reproducing information by using a signal from the optical detector.

A recording method for an optical medium having a disk-like substrate with a spiral or concentric-shaped groove structure along a track formed on the substrate. The groove structure is wobbled in a radial direction of the medium and the track is divided into a plurality of units in the track direction by at least one radial boundary line formed by a dropout portion. Identification information is disposed in the track at a head of each recording unit at the dropout portion and the medium is divided into a plurality of zones in a radial direction with a length of a circular arc being substantially the same between the zones in a circumferential direction. At least two adjacent units in the radial direction of the medium comprise one zone.
