An error signal detection apparatus for an optical recording/reproducing system including a light source emitting a light beam and an objective lens focusing the light beam to form a light spot on a recording medium, the apparatus including: a photodetecting unit dividing at least a part of the light beam passed through the objective lens after being reflected/diffracted from an information stream of the recording medium into light beam portions, and detecting the light beam portions; and a signal processor detecting phase differences between detection signals from the light beam portions to detect a tangential error signal, a defocus error signal, and/or a radial tilt error signal.

An apparatus for and a method of detecting a defocus error signal. First, second and third light receiving regions of a photodetector are arranged in a radial direction of a recording medium to independently perform photoelectric conversion with respect to incident light which is reflected/diffracted by the recording medium. A subtractor subtracts a sum signal of detection signals from the first and third light receiving regions and a detection signal of the second light receiving region to output a defocus error signal, to detect defocus and/or a change in thickness of the recording medium. The defocus error signal and a push-pull tracking error signal are compared in a state in which a predetermined amount of defocus is applied to a light spot to detect a seek direction of the recording medium having a land/groove structure.

An apparatus for use in an optical disc includes an optical disc and an optical branching unit irradiating a main light beam and a sub-light beam, wherein the sub-light beam includes a optical aberration in a direction on a track of the optical disc. The apparatus further includes a photodetector including a plurality of portions receiving and processing the main light beam and a plurality of portions receiving and processing the sub-light beam. A track error signal detector detects a track error signal from the portions receiving the main light beam. A track cross signal detector detects a track cross signal from the portions receiving the main light beam and from the portions receiving the sub-light beam. A signal processor further compares the track error signal with the track cross signal to detect the seek direction of a light spot formed on the optical disc.

An error signal detection method and apparatus for an optical recording/reproducing system. The error signal detection method includes: (a) detecting light incident through an objective lens after having been reflected and diffracted from a recording medium, as eight light portions arranged in a 2×4 matrix, including four inner light portions, and four outer light portions around the corresponding inner light portions, wherein the rows and columns of the matrix are parallel to the tangential and radial direction of the recording medium, respectively; (b) calculating a first sum signal by summing a detection signal from at least one outer light portion located in a first diagonal direction, and a detection signal from an inner light portion located in a second diagonal direction; (c) calculating second sum signal by summing a detection signal from an inner light portion located in the first diagonal direction, and a detection signal from an outer light portion located in the second diagonal direction; and (d) comparing phases of the first and second sum signals and outputting a phase comparison signal, wherein a tilt error signal is detected from the phase comparison signal. The tilt error signal detected using the method by the error signal detection apparatus has a high signal-to-noise ratio, and is less affected by detracting.

An apparatus to generate a seek direction detecting signal for an optical pickup to determine a position of a center of an optical spot focused on an optical disk relative to a center of a track, which focuses a main beam on a first optical detector and a sub-beam having a predetermined aberration in a radial direction on a second optical detector using a light dividing unit. The second optical detector has an inner and an outer pair of light receiving portions arranged along the radial direction, the inner pair being between the outer pair. A signal processing portion includes a first signal processing portion to detect a track error signal from signals output from the first optical detector, and a second signal processing portion to generate the seek direction detecting signal from signals detected by the second optical detector and the track error signal.

摘要:
An error signal detecting apparatus for an optical recording/reproducing apparatus, the error signal detecting apparatus including a photodetector to receive light reflected and diffracted by a recording medium, and a signal processor to detect an error signal by calculating a detection signal of the photodetector. The photodetector includes a plurality of light receiving areas to independently receive light of a light area in which the profile of the light changes to the opposite profile according to the tangential tilt of the recording medium. The signal processor detects a tangential tilt error signal from detection signals of the light receiving areas. Thus, a signal output from the error signal detecting apparatus does not change when a shift is generated in the objective lens or the distance between the objective lens and the disc is deviated from the on-focus position. Also, a change in the profile of the light beam according to a relative tangential tilt with respect to the objective lens of a recording medium in land/groove format can be properly detected so that an accurate tangential tilt error signal can be detected.
