A pre-pit signal detecting apparatus is used in an information recording apparatus for recording record information onto a record medium on which record control information for controlling a recording operation is recorded in advance by forming a pre-pit on the record medium, and detects a pre-pit signal corresponding to the pre-pit when the information recording apparatus records the record information onto the record medium. The pre-pit signal detecting apparatus is provided with: an extracting device, to which a reproduction signal of the record medium is inputted, for extracting and outputting a predetermined signal component, which is used for detecting the pre-pit signal, out of the inputted reproduction signal; an input controlling device for inputting a standard signal, which is set in advance, to the extracting device in place of the reproduction signal before the pre-pit signal is detected and inputting the reproduction signal to the extracting device when the pre-pit signal is detected; a phase difference detecting device for comparing the standard signal outputted by the extracting device with the standard signal inputted by the input controlling device, and for detecting a phase difference generated between the compared standard signals due to an extracting operation of the extracting device before the pre-pit signal is detected; and a pre-pit detecting device for detecting the pre-pit signal on the basis of the extracted predetermined signal component while canceling the detected phase difference.

A push-pull signal Spp fetched with tracking open is smoothed to a smoothing signal Spp to remove signal components generated wobbling due to radial runout, and the smoothing signal is binarized to compute an autocorrelation value in the autocorrelation computing circuit 210. This computing is made by multiplying the binarized signal by a signal delayed by the half cycle and sign-negated to compute the integrated value, and the integrated value output signal Dint is generated. A maximum value of the integrated value output signal Dint within a predetermined period of time is computed by the maximum value holding circuit 220 to output a maximum value output signal Dout. Depending on the amplitude of the maximum value signal Dout, the CPU 105 determines whether the recording medium is a writable one or read only one. Wobble determination can be made keeping tracking open, and a type of a recording medium is carried out accurately.

A tracking servo system of disk player uses the time difference detection method for generating the tracking error signal. A time gate is provided for detecting the zero-crossing of the tracking error level in an on-track condition during a jumping operation. As the result, negative effects due to unstableness in timing of the zero-crossing can be eliminated.

Provided are a method and apparatus for detecting an occurrence of erroneous recording in recording information to be recorded into a DVD-R. The information consists of a plurality of ECC blocks each including a predetermined number of recording sectors. In the DVD-R, synchronizing information, accomplished by wobbling of groove tracks, and positional information, such as pre-pits, are previously recorded. Both the synchronizing information and the positional information are detected, then a synchronizing timing signal showing a time at which the synchronizing information is detected and a positional timing signal showing a time at which each ECC block is assigned to be recorded are produced. The synchronizing timing signal produced during an interval defined by the successive two positional timing signals is counted in number, and a state signal for estimating the occurrence of the erroneous recording is produced on comparison between the counted number and the predetermined number of the recording sectors. The method and apparatus are suitable for information recording method and apparatus.

An optical disk player having a tracking servo apparatus and a focusing servo apparatus. By amplifying a focusing error at a predetermined gain and adding it to a tracking error, the rolling which occurs due to a mass balance distortion of a pickup is electrically suppressed. Thus, an adverse influence on the tracking servo by the rolling upon focusing driving can be prevented.

An optical disk player using quadrant type photodetector as light receiving means. The phase difference output by the time difference detection method is issued as a tracking error, and a DC component of differential output by the push-pull method is issued as a tilt error, and zero cross of said differential output is detected. By using this detection output for the detection of zero-cross timing on off-track, stable operation of the tracking servo unit is ensured.
