摘要:
The present invention aims to provide a reproduced signal evaluation method and a write adjustment method for offering a Blu-ray disc having a large storage capacity with excellent media compatibility. An evaluation index L-SEAT is calculated through signed addition using a Euclidean distance difference calculated from at least one of target signals in which a focused edge is shifted to the right and left, and the quality of the reproduced signal is evaluated based on the evaluation index. Write condition adjustment using the index enables write adjustment not depending on SNR and achieving high adjustment accuracy.

A recording medium and apparatus enable the number of data units of recording pulse information to be reduced. The recording medium includes an information area for recording set values of a recording pulse for forming recording marks. The set values include preceding space-based set values having a first reference value as a set value of a recording pulse corresponding to a predetermined preceding space and a first difference set value of a recording pulse corresponding to a space other than the predetermined preceding space; and trailing space-based set values having a second reference value as a set value of a recording pulse corresponding to a predetermined trailing space and a second difference set value of a recording pulse corresponding to a space other than the predetermined trailing space and which is expressed as a difference from the second reference value.
