摘要:
Track jumping on optical storage media whose address information items invalidate the track error signal at time intervals is intended to be configured more securely and more reliably. For this purpose, at the end of a coarse jump, one or more correction jumps are carried out if the optical scanner is not presently sweeping over an address information area and the track change frequency of the tracks crossed by the scanner falls below a predetermined value.
摘要:
The invention relates to a method for recording longitudinal track bundles on an information medium. The method involves recording tracking information in special tracks in said track bundles. The special tracks are contiguous between each other. When recording a new track bundle a recording and/or reading head may be positioned using tracking information contained in special tracks of a previously recorded track bundle. Several examples of patterns used for coding tracking information in the special tracks we described.
