摘要:
A recording apparatus provided on, for example, a digital audio tape recorder or on a data storage device for correctly and reliably recording data. An ECC unit 23 appends the parity for error correction to recording data and transmits the resulting data to recording heads Hw1, Hw2, while recording the parity in a RAM 61. The recording data and the parity are reproduced from a magnetic tape 32 by magnetic heads Hr1, Hr2 and supplied to a subcode separation unit 45. A syndrome detection unit 62 detects the number of error corrections performed by parity by an error correction unit 46. A system controller 63 compares the number of times of error corrections to a threshold value and compares the parity read out from the RAM 61 to the parity from the sub-code separation unit 45 in order to detect if the recording data has been recorded correctly. If the recording data has not been recorded correctly, the system controller controls a recording/reproducing unit 30 for re-recording the same recording data.
摘要:
A data reproducing apparatus in which the identification information recorded in multiplicity on a recording track can be reliably reproduced assuring stable data reproduction including a decoder 61 to decode the area IDs supplied from an 8/10 demodulation circuit 43 and to supply each decoded area ID to counters C0 to C15, a system controller 70 to find the number of times of occurrences of coincidences of the area IDs of areas other than the end of data (EOD) area and, based on the frequency of detection of the occurrences of the area IDs by the counters C0 to C15, detects the area IDs of the (EOD) area. Finally, the system controller 70 controls the running of a magnetic tape 31 based on the detected area IDs.
摘要:
An apparatus for recording and/or reproducing digital data information on a recording medium which has a recorder similar to a digital audio recorder (DAT) which records digital signals in a frame made up of two oblique tracks formed by rotary heads and a controller for dividing the digital data information at a predetermined frame portion and supplying the divided information to the recorder as a digital signal, wherein since the digital data information are divided at the predetermined frame portion, they are easily re-recorded.
摘要:
Digital data is formatted and recorded in track pairs on a tape by the rotary heads of a DAT so as to have a header portion for each track which includes a frame number, error correcting code, ID and so on added to the digital data, the content of each header portion of the tracks for any given frame being equal whereby it is possible to easily detect, upon reproduction, unerased data signals due to head clogging and so on by comparing portions of the two header portions of each frame and error correcting the data from those tracks where it is determined that the compared header portions contain different data.
摘要:
A data streamer using a digital audio tape recorder (DAT) arranged such that even when the supply of incoming data to be recorded is interrupted, the data recorder is operated continuously and a data invalid signal is recorded on the tape in an area other than the data recording area, whereby the data recorder can record data at a high recording rate and in short time.
摘要:
An apparatus and method for recording and/or reproducing digital data employing a DAT (digitial audio tape recorder) adapted to record and/or reproduce data from a computer or the like in accordance with the DAT format. Main data is recorded in a main area of a track while error detecting data for the main data recorded in the main area of the track is recorded in a sub-area of the track to thereby easily detect an error in the main data.

摘要:
A data recorder includes a recording unit for recording data having a predetermined data format and a frame address in a recording medium in units of frames each consisting of predetermined amount of data, and for forming a plurality of Partitions each consisting of a plurality of data areas in which different types of data are recorded during recording. The data recorder performs initialization of a length of at least one of the Partitions.
摘要:
In this invention, a predetermined amount of data is given as one frame, and data having a predetermined format is recorded for each frame. A first area recording main data and a second area recording sub data are formed in each frame. Plural types of units each consisting of a plurality of frames are set, and a number of first units from a leading end of a recording medium and the numbers of other units from the leading end of the recording medium to a trailing end of the first units are recorded in the second area of a frame constituting the unit including the trailing end, thus facilitating a high-speed search operation.
摘要:
A digital audio tape recorder is used as a digital data storage recorder and digital signals containing main data and sub-data are recorded in separate areas in each track of a plurality of tracks formed on a recording medium, wherein a predetermined number of tracks constitute a group and a plurality of groups are recorded on the medium. In the sub-area an identification signal is further recorded which indicates whether or not main data recorded in the main areas of a given group is same as the main data recorded in the main areas of preceding and subsequent adjacent groups. When identical data is multiply written for a plurality of units, a division of the multiply written portions is detected, and signal processing is facilitated.
