Abstract:
A method of determining a recording power used to record information to an optical disc, includes carrying out test recording which records predetermined data to a predetermined area of the optical disc to determine the recording power, and recording predetermined data with a power equal to or more than the determined recording power to an area adjacent to the predetermined area.
Abstract:
A writable optical information recording medium, an apparatus for reproducing the same, and a method of determining the same are provided. The amplitude of a push-pull signal (PPS) of the writable optical information recording medium is determined to be within an amplitude range of a PPS of a reproduction-only optical information recording medium. Accordingly, it is possible to stably reproduce copy protected content by recognizing a loaded writable optical information recording medium as a medium of a reproduction-only type.
Abstract:
A data storage medium is provided on which data is to be recorded by modulating the data to generate a plurality of recording modulation codes and irradiating a pulse-like light beam to the data storage medium, so that a plurality of recording marks and spaces which have lengths corresponding to the plurality of recording modulation codes are formed on the data storage medium. At least two of the plurality of recording marks are formed by the light beam emitted according to a recording pulse train. The recording pulse train comprising a first pulse which is disposed at a front and forms a leading edge of the recording mark, a last pulse which is disposed at a backend and forms a trailing edge of the recording mark, and a multi-pulse train which is disposed between the first pulse and the last pulse and forms a center of the recording mark. The multi-pulse train has a pulse period longer than T which represents a reference period of the recording modulation code. The plurality of recording marks have different lengths represented by T with each other. A number of pulses in each of the recording pulse trains is increased by one as the recording mark is increased in length by 2T. A shortest recording mark and a second shortest recording mark are constituted of a single pulse, respectively.

Abstract:
A DVD-R recorder according to the invention detects an item of recording speed information (d15) from a DVD-R (30) on which histories of recording speed information, write strategy, and recording power condition are stored. When the decoded item of recording speed information (d15) agrees with a set item of recording speed information (d17), the recorder detects the write strategy (d6) and the recording power condition (d10) corresponding to the decoded item of recording speed information (d15). A recording-pulse-determination section (9) converts a recording pattern (d8) into a recording pulse (d9) according to the write strategy (d6). A recording-power-determination section (12) performs an OPC based on the recording power condition (d10). The recording power condition (d10) may include information specifying that a recording pulse corresponding to the front edge of a recorded mark has a larger recording power than other recording pulses.

Abstract:
The invention provides an information recording medium including highly reliable power calibration areas, as well as an information recording and reproducing device utilizing it. The medium is an information recording medium having a recording layer including a data recordable area 50 for recording user information signals, a lead-in area provided on the inner periphery of the data recordable area 50, an inner power calibration area provided further on the inside of the lead-in area for recording test recording patterns, and a recording management area for recording management information related to the inner power calibration area. An outer power calibration area 70 is provided on the outer periphery of the final point of recording of the user information signal on the recording layer.
Abstract:
The optical data recording method comprising the steps of: modulating data to be recorded, to generate a plurality of recording modulation codes; and emitting a pulse-like light beam to an optical disc, so that a plurality of recording marks and spaces which have lengths corresponding to the plurality of recording modulation codes are formed on the optical disc. In the optical data recording method, at least two of the plurality of recording marks comprises: a first pulse which is disposed at a front and forms a leading edge of the recording mark, a last pulse which is disposed at a backend and forms a trailing edge of the recording mark, and a multi-pulse train which is disposed between the first pulse and the last pulse and forms a center of the recording mark. The multi-pulse train has a pulse period longer than T which represents a reference period of the recording modulation code.
