摘要:
An allocating method of allocating a run length limited (RLL) code having enhanced direct current (DC) suppression capability, modulation and demodulation methods, and a demodulation apparatus are provided. In order to control DC suppression, a pair of code groups having suppression controlling capability are allocated, and a (1, 8, 8, 12) code having DC suppression capability, in which a code word of the pair of code groups has the sign of code word sum value (CSV) parameter, which represent DC value in a code word, and the characteristic of an INV parameter, which predicts the transition direction of digital sum value (DSV) of the succeeding code word, both opposite to those of the code word which belongs to the other code group and corresponds to the same source code, is used and is appropriate to high-density optical disc system.

A method of generating a run length limited (RLL) code having improved direct current (DC) suppression capability and modulation and demodulation methods of the generated RLL code. According to the method of generating the RLL codes, code words that satisfy a (d, k) run length constraint are generated. By allocating main code groups, in which a code word can be duplicated depending on the characteristics of the generated codeword and code words of each main code group are allocated in consideration of a code word sum value (CSV) parameter, which represents the DC value in a code word, and an inverse characteristic of an INV parameter, which predicts the transition direction of digital sum value (DSV) of the next code word, and allocating decision groups for differentiating the duplicated code words, by using some of the code words, which are already used in main code group, as code words for DSV groups for the DC suppression, the number of code word bits can be reduced and the recording density increases, while improving the DC suppression capability.

An optical recording medium and a recording/reproducing method therefor to stably and accurately address a basic recording and/or reproducing unit (a sector or a frame) when a track pitch is decreased for recording of a large capacity of data. The general information (e.g., a variable frequency oscillator, a sector number, a sector type, and error detection information) of a corresponding sector is read from a header, which has physical pits between adjacent land and/or groove tracks, before recording or reproducing. The arrangement of the header is in the form of physical pits, with a sector structure where 2-kilobyte minimum recording units are included in a user area within a basic recording unit of 4 kilobytes, which thereby reduces overhead and facilitates the generation of a servo control signal.

A circuit for recovering a digital clock signal and a method therefor is disclosed. The digital clock recovery circuit includes an analog-to-digital (A/D) converter and asymmetry corrector for converting a received analog signal into digital data and providing corrected digital data corrected by a binarization level which traces the center value of the received signal, a frequency error detector for detecting a frequency error from the corrected digital data, a phase error detector for detecting a phase error from the corrected digital data, and a digital low pass filter (LPF) for providing the frequency error and the phase error as a control voltage. It is possible to trace the asymmetry of the received signal more sensitively than in the conventional technology by realizing an asymmetry corrector for correcting the asymmetry of the digital data which has undergone the analog-to-digital (A/D) conversion, the phase error detector, and the LPF by a digital circuit, thus generating a system clock signal and to improve the reliability of the system by stably generating the system clock signal.

An apparatus and method for measuring the quality of a signal on an optical disc based on level information of a viterbi decoder are provided. The signal quality measuring apparatus includes: a binary unit that generates binary signals from input RF signals; a channel identifier that receives the input RF signals and the binary signals output from the binary unit and outputs reference level values corresponding to the binary signals; and an information calculator that receives the reference level values and detects a signal quality value.

A BCA (Burst Cutting Area) code including a unique disk code indicating the type of a disk is written in a BCA code area of the disk. If the disk is mounted into the optical disk player, the optical disk player reads data written in the BCA code area, extracts the disk code contained in the read data, and confirms the type of the disk corresponding to the extracted disk code by retrieving a disk code table in which disk codes corresponding to the types of disks are mapped.

A method of generating and allocating codewords includes allocating one of two selectable codewords b1 and b2 as codeword “b” when a preceding codeword “a” and a following codeword “b” form a code stream X, in which the codewords b1 and b2 have opposite INV values which are parameters indicating whether the number of ‘1s’ contained in a codeword is an odd number or an even number. When the code stream of the preceding codeword “a” and the following codeword b1 is X1, and when the code stream of the preceding codeword “a” and the following codeword b2 is X2, the codewords are allocated such that the INV values of X1 and X2 are maintained to be opposite when the preceding codeword “a” or the following codeword b1 (b2) (b1 or b2) should be replaced by another codeword in compliance with a predetermined boundary condition given between codewords. The codewords are allocated so that a DC suppression capability of the code stream can be maintained.
摘要:
In a data demodulating method and apparatus, and a code arranging method, a multiplexer multiplexes an input data stream divided by a predetermined length into a plurality of types of pseudo random data streams using multiplexed information of predetermined bits by applying a predetermined multiplexing method to each of the pseudo random data streams. An encoder RLL-modulates the plurality of types of pseudo random data streams to create a modulated code stream including a minimum of DC components. The multiplexer generates the random data streams by inconsecutively scrambling the input data stream using the multiplexed information. The encoder weak DC-free RLL-modulates each of the multiplexed data streams without using a DC control sub code conversion table to which additional bits are added and provides a code stream including a minimum of DC components among multiplexed, RLL-modulated code streams.

An optical recording medium has a user data area and a lead-out area, wherein the user data area and the lead-out area each has grooves and lands formed thereon. Wobbles are formed on at least one lateral surface of grooves of the user data area and the lead-out area, and configured such that wobble characteristics are made different between the user data area and the lead-out area. Different types of wobbles are formed on the grooves of either the user data area or the lead-out area, thereby preventing an optical pickup that performs recording/reproduction from deviating from the user data area. Also, in a multi-layer optical recording medium, a whole area of a recording layer is configured to have a same condition, thereby preventing deterioration in reproduction and/or recording due to a difference in light power transmittance of another recording layer.

An information storage medium has user data areas and additional data areas, and sync patterns to distinguish the additional data areas from the user data areas. The information storage medium includes a user data area in which user data is recorded and an additional data area located in at least one of areas before and after the user data area. Second sync patterns used in the additional data area are different from first sync patterns used in the user data area.
