摘要:
For optical disk apparatus compatible with multiple standards, employing multiple source beams with different wavelengths, less costly implementations of the photodetecting optics section and associated circuitry are presented. A photodetector plane dedicated to RF signal detection is provided. By bandwidth combining an RF signal detected by this plane is with another signal from other photodetector planes, S/N ratio is improved. For beam splitting, diffraction gratings are used and adjustment precision requirement is relaxed greatly. AC amplifiers can be used as RF photocurrent amplifiers.

A power adjustment method in which a modulation index is calculated from reproduced signals of patterns recorded by irradiating light onto an optical information recording medium with a recording power varied and an optimum power of irradiation light is set up using the modulation index. The power adjustment method includes calculating an optimum value PcO of a predetermined correction term Pc using a relation of a value obtained by subtracting the predetermined correction term Pc from the recording power and the modulation index, finding a value Pth of the recording power at which the modulation index becomes substantially zero in the relation of the value obtained by subtracting the optimum value PcO from the recording power and the modulation index, and setting up a value obtained by multiplying the value of Pth by a predetermined constant as a recording power of each of the recording patterns.
摘要:
A write power adjustment method and optical read/write apparatus for accurate optimum write power setup. Different levels of write power Pwm are used to perform a test write and calculate a modulation Mm corresponding to each level of write power Pwm. Different write power compensated values Pcn are used to calculate an evaluated value Smn=Mm×(Pwm−Pcn). Pcn that maximizes the linearity of the relationship between compensated write power (Pwm−Pcn) and evaluated value Smn is determined as an optimum write power compensated value PcO. Compensated write power PthO that provides a modulation of zero, that is, an evaluated value SmO of zero, when the relationship between compensated write power (Pwm−PcO) for PcO and evaluated value SmO is subjected to linear approximation is determined. PthO and optimum write power compensated value PcO are used to calculate a write power threshold Pth=PthO+PcO. A predetermined calculation is performed on Pth to determine optimum write power Popt. In contrast to a conventional write power adjustment method (κ method), the present invention makes it possible to accurately adjust for the optimum write power even when the optical disc's write power Pwm-to-evaluated value M×Pw relationship is not linear or its modulation M varies.

Disclosed herewith is a data recording and reading equipment capable of reducing laser noise easily. At first, a laser beam source that can reduce the laser noise when reading data from a subject optical disk is obtained. A modulator capable of varying laser attenuation with a voltage is disposed so as to precede the laser, thereby the laser noise when reading data from the optical disk can be reduced without lowering the laser power when in writing.

A frequency characteristics compensation method that can be applied to various waveforms (strategies). When determining the amount of frequency compensation, a deteriorated part by frequency characteristics is compensated for with respect to the difference between the pulse power to be compensated and the power level immediately before it. The present invention can also be applied to variations in the performance, aged deterioration, and temperature characteristics.
