In order to prevent content data from being illegally recorded or reproduced, information for detecting that the content data is illegally distributed or recorded is added to watermark information or other information. Two sets of WM (watermark) data, a WM1 data set and a WM2 data set are prepared. For the WM1 data, data representing that the content data is package media data or distribution data, SCMS information, data representing that the content data is recorded in a disk or a semiconductor memory, and data representing the type of disk or semiconductor memory are set. For the WM2 data, the distribution time or the year and date is set as time information representing time when the content data is recorded. According to the WM1 or WM2 data, a data reproducing device (1) controls reproduction most suitably as copyright holder's intention.

To provide a pitch waveform signal division device and the like for making it possible to compress a data capacity of data representing a sound efficiently. A computer C1 arranges time lengths of sections for a unit pitch of sound data, which the computer C1 compresses, to be identical to thereby generate a pitch waveform signal, detects a boundary of adjacent phonemes included in a sound represented by the pitch waveform signal and an end of this sound on the basis of intensity of a difference between two sections for adjacent unit pitches of this pitch waveform signal, divides the pitch waveform signal in the detected boundary and end, and outputs obtained data as phoneme data.
摘要:
A technique for stably receiving an orthogonal frequency division multiplexed signal by means of a simple structure. Delay circuits 9–11 add delay times to the signals simultaneously received by antennas 1–4 in such a way that the delay time difference between any two signals is the reciprocal or more of the bandwidth allocated to one subcarrier of orthogonal frequency division multiplex. Thus, the signal synthesized by a mixer 12 can be assumed to be substantially equivalent to the received signal in a multipath environment. Since the delay time differences among the signals simultaneously received by the antennas 1–4 are sufficiently shorter than the length of the guard interval section, the margin prepared for actual arrival of a delay wave because of multipath is sufficiently ensured.

An AM neighboring interference removing method and circuit is provided which can select only a desired AM modulation wave even if an interference AM modulation wave is partially superposed upon the desired AM modulation wave. An AM modulation wave desired to be received is multiplied at multipliers by local oscillation signals having frequencies 3fc/2 and fc/2 where fc is the carrier frequency of a neighboring interference AM modulation wave. High frequency components contained in the outputs of the multipliers are removed by low-pass filters. Of the outputs of the low-pass filters, the carrier frequency of the neighboring interference wave is fc/2 and the AM carrier frequencies of the AM stereo modulation wave are (fc/2+fα) and (fc/2−fα), where fα is a difference frequency between the AM carrier frequency of the AM stereo modulation wave and the carrier frequency of the neighboring interference wave. A subtractor subtracts the output of one of the low-pass filter from the output of the other to thereby cancel out the neighboring interference wave. This subtraction signal is passed through a low-pass filter having a cut-off frequency of fc/2 to derive only the AM stereo modulation wave.

An optical pickup apparatus (10) for reading data from a plurality of tracks of an optical disc (34) at the same time by focussing spots (M, . . . ) of each light beam on a plurality of tracks, passing the reflected light beams of spots (M, . . . ) sequentially through an objective lens (30), a collimator lens (28), and a focus adjusting lens (50) in this order, and detecting the reflected light beams with photodiodes (52M, . . . ) disposed along a photodiode light reception plane (68). In order to make each reflected light become incident upon each photodiode (52M, . . . ), a case (72) and a bracket (78) are separated from a chassis (70), and support the focus adjusting lens (50) and the photodiodes (52M, . . . ) respectively. The case (72) and bracket (78) are made so that they can be fixed to the chassis (70) at optional positions in a predetermined area along a direction of the optical axis (66). While the case (72) and bracket (78) are moved along the optical axis (66) direction, positions along the optical axis (66) where the reflected light beams are allowed to enter the photodiodes (52M, . . . ) are searched and the case (72) and bracket (78) are fixed to the chassis (70) at the searched positions.

A disc cramp device which holds a disc by sandwiching it by a turn table and a cramper, according to the present invention, includes a cramper arm which is rotated in a direction to move close to the turn table and a direction to move away from it, a plate spring member, a part of which is fixed to the cramper arm, which lifts the cramper during an uncramping time, and which presses an upper center of the cramper in a direction of the turn table during a cramping time. It is constructed so that by providing tongue pieces for pressing the upper center of the cramper at a tip end portion of the cramper arm, the plate spring member presses the cramper while it is held at both sides during the uncramping time, and the plate spring member is pressed by the fixing member to be elastically deformed during the uncramping time. Consequently, according to the disc cramp device of the present invention, the number of components is reduced, and the height of the space for transferring the disc can be made large with respect to the height of the entire device, in addition to which, the driving force in a cramping and uncramping operations can be made small.

A user can designate a track for program reservation of a Carousel player capable of loading both a CD and DVD-Audio, smoothly irrespective of the type of a disk. It is first checked whether a track corresponding to the disk number entered by a user is a track of CD or DVD-Audio. If the track is a track of a CD, after the disk number input, the user is immediately requested to enter a track number, whereas if the track is a track of a DVD-Audio, the user is requested to enter a group number and then the user is requested to enter a track number.
