摘要:
The present invention provides an optical information recording apparatus and method capable of effectively determining appropriate recording parameters in a short time with favorable efficiency, when recording information onto an optical disk having different information recording conditions and information recording characteristics. An information recording condition or an information recording characteristic of an optical disk 1 is identified, and a recording pulse position is corrected at a correction accuracy according to the identifies information recording condition or information recording characteristic, such that a recording mark is formed in a predetermined position.

An edge position of a recording pulse is corrected according to multi-valued information for determining the width of a mark in an edge position correction circuit, thereby it is possible to form a mark edge in a correct position when a mark with any width is to be corrected to enable a correct multi-valued recording/reproducing.
摘要:
The present invention relates to a recording and reproducing method and apparatus for an optical disk of the phase transition type that can be overwritten. According to this invention, the capacity of repeated rewriting of the optical disk is expanded by recording either non-inverted write data or inverted write data at random. The deterioration due to the repeated rewriting at a start point and an end point of the recording is suppressed by recording a synchronizing signal before the write data and/or dummy data after the write data in the way such that thermal stress is less likely to occur. A record end position can be determined precisely by detecting a stop pulse to stop recording.
摘要:
A recording and reproducing method and apparatus for an optical disk of the phase transition type is provided. This method comprises the steps of deciding at random to invert or not to invert write data that has a predetermined block length; inverting the write data if the decision is to invert the write data; and recording either the non-inverted write data or the inverted write data into the photo-sensitive record layer. A synchronizing signal is recorded before the write data and/or dummy data after the write data in the way such that thermal stress is less likely to occur. A record end position can be determined precisely by detecting a stop pulse.
摘要:
An apparatus for writing on and reading an overwritable optical disk comprises an identifier detector that identifies a recording condition in the sector to be overwritten, and a delay time controller circuit that sets a variation range of the start point for writing according to the recording condition. The record timing of the modulated data signal is changed at random within the set variation range when overwriting the sector of the optical disk.

摘要:
A recording and reproducing apparatus for an optical disk of the transitional type that can be overwritten, having an optical information recording medium. The medium has a guide groove and a sector ID area. Information is recorded by irradiation with a light beam to change a state of a photo-sensitive record layer, and the recording may be stopped by the generation of a stop pulse. The stop pulse may be generated by an altered width of the guide groove before the sector ID area, or by one or more larger prepits before the sector ID area.
