    Abstract: A first trial write process obtains an optimum recording power of a test pattern even with respect to data having different rules for the recording waveforms corresponding n type data length sets, and a second trial write process using this optimum recording power obtains optimum pulse width or optimum pulse edge position separately for each data length set. Based on the optimum recording power and optimum recording waveform obtained by these trial write processes, recording operation is performed so as to form all the data lengths with satisfactory accuracy, thereby making it possible to obtain a proper reproduced signal.

    Abstract: A comparator compares a time interval between a first synchronization signal and a second synchronization signal with a target value, and outputs an error therebetween. A frequency calculator calculates a set value of a pixel clock frequency based on the error output from the comparator, and outputs a frequency specification signal for specifying a pixel clock frequency according to the calculated set value. A frequency divider divides a high frequency clock generated by a high frequency clock generator by a frequency division ratio based on the frequency specification signal output from the frequency calculator, and generates the pixel clock.

Hence, it is possible to form the shape of a recording mark and the mark position with good accuracy. Thus, recording can be performed with good accuracy.

    Abstract: In an information recording method and apparatus, a sequence of sync frames indicative of data is recorded onto tracks of an optical recording medium. In the recording medium, prepits are formed on lands between the tracks at given intervals, and sync patterns, providing synchronization on a sync-frame basis, are inserted in the sync frames such that each sync pattern has a length in a track direction larger than a length of one of the prepits and a position of each sync pattern matches with a position of at least one of the prepits. Codes that represent sync patterns for the sync frames are selected such that each sync pattern is formed as a space on the recording medium. Modulation codes are generated based on the sync frames in which the selected codes are inserted, by modulating the sync frames containing the selected codes in accordance with a predetermined modulation scheme. A sequence of recording pulses is generated by converting the modulation codes through a predetermined conversion scheme. A prepit position signal is detected from one of the prepits for each of the sync frames during the writing of the recording pulses to the recording medium, so that a write position control is performed based the detected prepit position signal. Further disclosed in an optical recording medium which is appropriate for use with the information recording method and apparatus.
