摘要:
A magnetic storage control apparatus for controlling a magnetic storage apparatus that uses a recording medium having a plurality of reference signals on its track and having a data area between the reference signals. The apparatus includes: a measurement section that reproduces the reference signal in a predetermined track of the recording medium and measures, for each data area, the time for a head to scan the data area to obtain a measurement value; a calculation section that calculates a setting value concerning the frequency of a recording clock used in data recording based on the measurement values of a plurality of data areas obtained by the measurement section; and a generation section that generates the recording clock based on the measurement values obtained by the measurement section and setting value calculated by the calculation section.

A decoder decodes a code by selecting, based on a predetermined condition, a path out of paths representing a transition of each of states in a trellis diagram. A storing unit stores, when a path at time k is selected, information on a selection history of a path selected at time prior to time (k−(a constraint length of a code)+1). A path detecting unit detects a path to be excluded from a path selection candidate, based on the information stored in the storing unit and information on a state of a transition source when a state transition occurs from time k−1 to time k.

In a hologram recording medium, a bleaching beam irradiated to fix recorded information is prevented from spreading and advancing into an unrecorded area. The hologram recording medium is provided with a hologram material layer for recording information to be recorded by irradiating a same area with an information beam which corresponds to the information to be recorded and a reference beam for reading out the recorded information. The hologram material layer is divided into a plurality of recording zones by a plurality of light blocking walls, and the light blocking walls are formed in the recording zone to which recording process has been performed, by using a material not passing through the bleaching beam irradiated for fixing the recorded information.

An error correction device error corrects without increasing in circuit scale. An encoder, includes: a first ECC encoder which interleaves a data string into n (n≧2) blocks of data strings at every m (m≧2) bits, and adds the error correction code parity; a parity encoder which creates a parity bit at every plurality of bits of the error correction code word, and adds the parity bit to said error correction code word; and a second ECC encoder, which generates a second error correction encoding, which is a linear encoding using iterative decoding. Concatenated type encoded data, where a parity bit is added to every plurality of bits, is created, so an increase of circuit scale can be prevented even if a data string is interleaved into a plurality of blocks and error correction code parity is generated.

A holographic recording medium is a medium which records and reproduces data by irradiation with an information beam and a reference beam. This medium includes a user region for recording user data; and a calibration region for storing calibration data for calibrating an element which determines a recording and reproducing characteristic of a recording and reproducing apparatus for recording and reproducing data on/from the recording medium. The calibration data stored in the calibration region includes pattern information for measuring the element determining the recording and reproducing characteristic of the recording and reproducing apparatus.

It is an object of the present invention to provide a data reproducer in which the quality of a reproduction signal is improved. A data reproducer of the present invention includes a phase-difference detecting section which obtains the cross correlation value between the head pattern in a track to be reproduced and a reproduction signal, synchronous detectors which respectively obtain the cross correlation value between the head pattern of a track adjacent to the track to be reproduced and the reproduction signal, and crosstalk value detector which obtains the direction and ratio of crosstalk in accordance with these cross correlation values. The data reproducer has a correcting function which corrects the offset and gain of a reproduction signal in accordance with a phase difference and cross correlation value obtained by the phase-difference detecting section.

An optical disk includes a recording area divided into annular bands and further into sectors. Each sector includes alternating grooves and lands, both serving as data-recording tracks. Each groove includes an address region in which data is recorded by in-phase double wobbles. The address region includes an address selection data recording portion and individual address data recording portions. The address selection data recording portion stores data for selecting one of the individual address data recording portions to read individual address data from the selected recording portion.
