An evaluation method for calculating an identification signal by using PRML, comprises a table storing true patterns and ideal signals thereof, false patterns corresponding to the true patterns and ideal signals thereof, and Euclidean distance between the true pattern and the false pattern, a calculating unit, when a recording signal synchronized with an identification signal coincides with any pattern of the table, calculates a distance between Euclidean distance between the ideal signal of the true pattern and a reproduction signal and Euclidean distance between the ideal signal of the false pattern and a reproduction signal, and an evaluation unit which evaluates an identification signal by using an average and standard deviation of difference. A table for patterns is created for a likely mistaken pattern, whereby calculating an evaluation value with high precision, of a signal quality, with a small amount of calculation.
摘要:
Signal quality evaluation is performed using a predetermined reproduction signal, a first pattern corresponding to a signal waveform pattern of the reproduction signal, and a given pattern corresponding to the signal waveform pattern of the reproduction signal and being different from the first pattern.

An optical disc medium includes a system area and a data area following the system area. A plurality of sets of an extended record control data area, a bordered area, and a border are possibly set in the data area continuously from the system area, and a first set of the plurality of sets does not include the extended record control data area. A user data is recorded in each of the bordered areas. In each of the plurality of sets other than the first set, a record control data associated with the user data which is recorded in the bordered area of the set is recorded in the extended record control data area.

A two-layer recording type optical disk capable of realizing stable recording and reproduction without being affected by another recording layer and an optical disk apparatus for the two-layer recording type optical disk are provided. In layouts of various areas in the optical disk, a position where a border between a recorded part and an unrecorded part is formed on one recording layer is set so that the position is always separated from a position where a border between a recorded part and an unrecorded part is formed on another recording layer by a predetermined clearance amount. Moreover, to a recording layer farther from an incident surface, test recording or data recording is always performed through a recorded part on a closer recording layer.

An optical disc has a read-only system lead-in area and a recordable data area. Disc boundary information representing a boundary in a radial direction of an area on which capability of recording at a predetermined recording speed is guaranteed is recorded on the system lead-in area while being related to each tuple speed. An optical disc device, upon user's instruction of tuple-speed recording, compares the boundary information related to the instructed tuple speed with a present recording position, performs recording at the instructed tuple speed if the present recording position is on the outside of the boundary, and performs recording at a tuple speed lower than the instructed tuple speed if the present recording position is on the inside of the boundary.
