A recording method for converting m-bit data into n-bit (where n>m) bit data whose run length is restricted and recoding the converted data on a recording medium, the recording method comprising the steps of when at least preceded data is data containing a special data pattern, lightening the restriction of the run length; and recording data so that the cumulative value of DC components per unit time increase when the data is reproduced in the state that the run length is restricted.

Six record areas for predetermined data that has been encoded and digitally modulated are formed in a data record area on a disc. The record areas have different offset compensation amounts. The offset compensation amounts allow all offset amounts that may take place in an error correction code encoder to be compensated. Thus, regardless of the offset amount generated by the error correction code encoder, encoded and modulated data that has been generated by the conventional EFM modulating system and recorded in one of the record areas securely causes DSV to deviate. Each of the record areas is set to a sufficient length that allows the effect of which DSV deviates to be recognized.

In a demodulation process of a first modulated signal and a second modulated signal, phase adjustment is automatically performed by generating, in response to demodulation results, an optimum phase value of a second internal reference wave for demodulating the second modulated signal. A phase of a second internal reference wave for demodulating the first modulated signal is also adjusted using the optimum phase value for the automatic adjustment.

摘要:
A recording medium has a first area in which data encoded with a first error correction code is recorded and a second area in which data encoded with the first error correction code and data decodable with a second error correction code that is different from the first error correction code are mixedly recorded. Data that causes the cumulated value of a DC component per unit period of data reproduced from the second area to deviate is recorded in the second area.

A phase-locked loop circuit that generates a clock signal synchronized with an input signal with a predetermined frequency, including an oscillator configured to oscillate and generate the clock signal; a converter configured to convert the input signal into a digital signal using the clock signal generated by the oscillator as a sampling clock; a frequency divider configured to divide a frequency of the clock signal generated by the oscillator to generate a comparison clock signal and send the comparison clock signal as a feedback; a normalizer configured to normalize an amplitude value of the digital signal generated by the converter; and an oscillation controller configured to control a phase of the clock signal generated by the oscillator so as to reduce a phase difference between the normalized digital signal generated by the normalizer and the comparison clock signal sent as a feedback by the frequency divider.
摘要:
A method for generating a record information composed of a main information having a plurality of formats and a subsidiary information associated with said main information, is disclosed. A discriminative information for discriminating the formats of the main information is arrayed in a synchronizing part of the subsidiary information, and the encoding operation is controlled as a function of the discriminative information to generate the record information. The discriminative information is transmitted to an encoding system within the extent of the data format to enable encoding in accordance with the formats and under maintenance of operational synchronization.

摘要:
A push-pull signal is detected from light reflected from a disk-shaped storage medium on which wobbling grooves are formed as recording tracks and address information is recorded by forming pre-pits on lands between adjacent grooves. A fundamental amplitude variation signal indicating the fundamental amplitude variation of the push-pull signal is acquired, and a reference voltage is generated by adding an offset voltage to the fundamental amplitude variation signal. Pre-pits are detected by comparing the push-pull signal with the reference voltage. Because the reference voltage is produced on the basis of the fundamental amplitude variation signal indicating the variation components of the push-pull signal due to the wobbling of grooves and noise, the variation components due to the wobbling and noise are reflected in the reference voltage. Furthermore, the variation components of the push-pull signal corresponding to the pre-pits are also reflected to a properly small extent in the reference voltage.
