摘要： An optical tape apparatus having improved focus and tracking control. An optical head records, reproduces, or rewrites data on an optical tape by helically scanning the tape with a laser beam. A guide plate is disposed between the optical head and the tape to prevent the beam from becoming unfocused due to fluctuation of the tape cuased by an air film between the optical head and the tape. The optical head contains a semiconductor laser and an optical system exhibiting chromatic aberration for directing the laser beam onto the tape. The optical system includes a condenser lens for focusing the beam onto the tape. Fine focus control is achieved by changing the wavelength of the laser beam by directing part of the beam reflected from the tape back to the laser, thereby changing the focal point of the beam by virtue of the chromatic aberration of the optical system. Coarse focus control is achieved by mounting the condenser lens on a piezoelectric actuator which moves the consenser lens to focus the beam onto the tape. A recording head for recording timing marks and tracking signals on the tape is disposed in advance of the optical head. A reading head reads the timing marks and the optical head reads the tracking signals. The timing marks and tracking signals are used to control the operation of the apparatus such that the tape is transported with a constant speed and data on diagonal signal tracks on the tape is accurately recorded, reproduced, or rewritten.

摘要： When jitter-like noise is prominent, sampling-phase control and amplitude control in a preamble pattern region is affected. It is possible to reduce effects of jitter-like noise without increasing the length of the preamble pattern. By altering a preamble pattern from that of a conventional 4T-cycle to 6T-cycle or over, amplitude data at a peak point of a reproduced signal, which is less affected by jitter-like noise, is utilized. Thus, the stability of the amplitude control can be improved. As to the phase control, a shift of the sampling timing is estimated by sample data of one cycle of the preamble pattern, and an acquisition procedure of the timing control is made faster.

摘要： An optical disk device including a head amplifier for recording/reproducing a signal onto/from a disk. In DVD-RAM disks, the signal level differs depending on whether the section is the PID area or the data field. The highest level in the PID area is a mirror level, whereas the highest level in the data field is a land/groove level. The gain of the head amplifier is limited so that the mirror level will not exceed the dynamic range of the head amplifier. Therefore, the head amplifier needs to assure a sufficient signal quality and send such a signal to a subsequent processing circuit. The signal is amplified with different suitable gains respectively for the PID area and the data field. Or an offset voltage corresponding to a difference between the mirror level and the land/groove level is applied to the PID area. As a result, the gain for the signal of the data field can be increased.

摘要： A signal processing method for recording and playing back recorded data with decreased detection errors originating from residual marks characteristic of an overwrite medium is performed by 8/9 modulating input data, and by inverting the polarity of the modulated data string at each "1" bit to produce a DC-free recording pulse. The thus-recorded signal is played back through a playback equalizer 8 before being converted by an A/D converter 9 into digitized amplitude data. The digitized data are processed to determine an identification level, which identification level is stored as well as used to determine displacement quantities for quantized bits derived from the analog playback signal. The number of "1" bits is counted by a counter 20, and an error in the number of "1" bits is detected by a comparator 21. An error bit decision circuit 22 determines which bit is most likely to be erroneous on the basis of displacement quantity, and the likely erroneous bit is corrected prior to outputting the data for 8/9 demodulation.

摘要： Embodiments of the invention provide a disk drive that is capable of effectively controlling a side erase, which is one of the problems with the use of the perpendicular recording technology. In one embodiment, tracks on a recording medium are formed concentrically or spirally by overwriting a primary side track, which is either an inner track or outer track, onto part of a secondary side track, which is on the side away from the primary side track. A head unit is installed so that a magnetic head positioned at one end of the head unit relatively may move over the recording medium and that the yaw angle prevailing at an end track of the primary side on the recording medium may be substantially zero.
