    摘要: The equalizer is capable of generating an equalized output that is compensated in the non-linearity of the signal reproduced by an MR head and a reliable high-density magnetically recorded-signal reproducer. The equalizer of an FIR-type filter structure includes a plurality of delay elements for delaying an input signal by a certain period, a plurality of coefficient processing units provided to input or output taps of the delay elements, and an adder for obtaining the sum of the outputs of the coefficient processing units. The distortion of the reproduced waveform can be corrected by a relatively simple circuit structure by comparing the signal value inputted to the coefficient processing unit from each tap with a predetermined threshold level and changing the signal value and a coefficient value to be multiplied in accordance with the comparison result. Therefore, any one of various existing signal processing systems can be applied to the decoding of reproduced signals of an MR head having the non-linear characteristic.

    摘要: In a write control method on an optical recording, at least one shift amount selected from the defocus amount of a laser beam on a recording medium, the shift amount of a recording position on a recording track and the shift amount of laser power during recording is controlled such that the selected amount falls within a predetermined range. Subsequently, a trial signal is trially recorded at a plurality of trial zones on the recording medium by using a laser power value as a parameter. The recorded trial signal is read and a difference .DELTA.V between center levels of a highest density waveform and a lowest density waveform is detected. In connection with each trial zone, the laser power value when a reading trial signal which makes the difference .DELTA.V minimum is recorded is defined as an optimum recording power value. Regular data is recorded at a predetermined storage area on the recording medium by using an optimum laser power value determined in connection with a trial zone closest to the predetermined storage area.

    摘要: A magneto-optical disk recording control method using the mark length recording method wherein the marks and gap regions between marks are recorded on the surface of the disk by maintaining a constant temperature distribution during the recording. The laser is driven to a non-recording level in gap regions between marks that exceed a base recording level used for reproduction of the marks. When a mark is recorded, the laser power is increased to a recording power level and after the mark has been recorded, the laser power level is reduced to the base power level, followed by being raised to the gap recording level. Control of the laser is performed by superposing a plurality of pulse trains that are synchronized with respect to a clock having a cycle T. The pulse trains are derived from the code train to be recorded and have pulses with a duration that is an integral multiple of (1/2)T. If the pulse width of the recording code train exceeds 2T, then the laser is controlled to reach a first power level in accordance with pulses of a first pulse train, be reduced to the gap recording level and then raised to a second power level in accordance with a second recording pulse train to maintain the temperature distribution constant during the recording of the mark. For the recording of longer marks, the laser is controlled to vary between the second power level and the gap recording level.

    摘要: A signal reproducing system discriminates signals stably in the case of reproducing a signal from an optical recording medium which has coexistent recording areas with the signals recorded in different recording forms therein. Parts that constitute a reproduced signal are respectively derived by corresponding signal detectors from the optical recording medium in which a preformat area and a data area are included as the coexistent recording areas. The average potentials of VFO parts, which are respectively contained in the reproduced signal parts, are detected on the basis of the envelopes of the signal parts by a peak detecting circuit and a bottom detecting circuit. The detected average potentials are compared with a reference voltage, and the resulting difference potentials are added to the reproduced signal by an adder to bring the average potentials of the VFO parts into agreement. Further, an unwanted part of the output signal of the adder corresponding thereto is replaced by a switch with the output signal of a signal generator, which has an average potential equal to the average potential of the VFO parts brought into agreement.

    摘要: A magnetic recording method for digital signals, and more particularly to a magnetic head driving current waveform wherein digital signals to be recorded on a magnetic tape at a high density have the waveform of the head driving current shaped in order to reduce the degradation of the waveform. That is, in a case where the period of the current reversal of the driving current is long and continues for at least 1.5 times the bit period, the amplitude of the current in the rise part of the wave is made small. The driving current of this waveform has a reduced waveform degradation, and the magnetic recording at the high density becomes possible.
