    Abstract: In a method of transforming a recording power level into multi-levels by using an extra recording power level, the optimum value of each recording power level is obtained, thereby achieving recording with good accuracy. By including a first test writing step (S1–S3) of performing test writing of predetermined first test data while varying the recording power in stages, and calculating an optimum recording power from the reproduction signal, and a second test writing step (S4–S6) of setting the recording power to the calculated optimum recording power and performing test writing of predetermined second test data while varying in stages the extra recording power applied in a part of a time period in which the optimum recording power is applied, and calculating an optimum extra recording power from the reproduction signal, the recording power and the extra recording power are separately calculated by test writing, and with which information is recorded. 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.
