摘要:
A recording medium having a dummy signal area on at least one side of a recording area is used and information is recorded with a dummy signal added to at least one of the leading and trailing sides in the recorded information signal. The user data area remains unaffected by repeated overwriting so that recorded user data is reproduced correctly. In particular, the wave form distortion caused by fluidization of a recording film remains at the dummy signal area and does not affect the user data area, so that the reproduction of the target information (user data) is assured.
摘要:
An optical recording medium includes grooves and lands on a substrate in which prepits are disposed on an extension of the boundary between a groove and a land such that they are located uniformly on both sides of the center line of the groove or the land and that they do not exist on the both sides of any specific position of the center line of the groove or the land. Through this, at least synchronous information would be obtained with ease and tracking offset would be decreased.

摘要:
A recording apparatus for recording information to an optical recording medium having an aligned prepit portion straddled on a plurality of tracks in a radial direction, the prepit portion including first and second prepit portions divided in a track direction and arranged on a boundary line of the respective tracks, the first and second prepit portions each having address information prepits arranged at every two-track pitch in the radial direction. The address information prepit of the first and second prepit portions being arranged with one track displaced in the radial direction, and a trailing end of an end prepit of the first prepit portion being aligned with the radial direction. The recording apparatus includes an irradiation source for irradiating a light spot on the optical recording medium, and a controller for controlling an irradiation position of an optical spot from the irradiation source.
摘要:
A recording apparatus for recording information to an optical recording medium having grooves and lands alternately provided in a radial direction, information recording areas being formed in both of the grooves and the lands, and at least one prepit region where a groove is not formed. In the prepit region, first and second information marks are disposed on a virtual extension of respectively a first boundary between one groove and one adjacent land and a second boundary between the one groove and an other adjacent land, the first and second information marks being disposed so as not to exist at opposing positions on both of the first and second boundaries of the one groove. The apparatus includes an irradiation source for irradiating a light spot on the optical recording medium, and a controller for controlling an irradiation position of an optical spot from the irradiation source.

摘要:
A recording method for an optical recording medium having an aligned prepit portion straddled on a plurality of tracks in a radial direction, wherein the prepit portion includes first and second prepit portions divided in a track direction. A prepit of the respective first and second prepit portions is arranged on a boundary of the respective tracks, the first prepit portion having an address information prepit and a synchronous information prepit and the second prepit having a synchronous information prepit. The prepits of the first and second portions are arranged at every two-track pitch in the radial direction and are arranged with one track displaced in the radial direction with a gap being provided between the first and second prepit portions. The method includes providing the optical medium, and recording information on the optical medium by irradiating an optical spot thereon.
