摘要:
A data reproduction system, which determines reproduced data based on comparison results of path metrics calculated in accordance with a Viterbi algorithm based on branch metrics calculated from expected values and a sampled value of a readout signal, includes an expected value setting unit for variably setting the expected values used for a calculation of the branch metrics in order to perform a Viterbi detection process without being easily affected by the transient response, offset variation, phase error and nonlinear torsion component of the readout signal. The readout signal is obtained from a recording medium on which data is recorded in accordance with a recording signal of a partial response waveform, the expected values are determined by the partial response waveform, and the sampled value is obtained by sampling the readout signal at a predetermined frequency.

A clock matching apparatus for a data reproduction system includes a phase error detection unit which detects a phase error of a clock signal based on samples of a readout signal output by a sampler of the data reconstruction system. A phase-locked loop supplies a phase-matched clock signal to the sampler by compensating for the phase error detected by the phase error detection unit. The phase error detection unit includes an edge detection unit which detects a sampling instant for an edge sample among the samples of the readout signal. A difference unit generates a difference in timing phase between the edge sample and a sync level, the sync level being a reference signal level corresponding to a level of the readout signal at the sampling instants thereof and defined based on a partial-response waveform, the difference in the timing phase being output to the phase-locked loop as the detected phase error.

The present invention realizes stable and more proper data reproduction even when a reproduced signal varies locally due to a noise or includes a steady distortion. In a data reproduction control method and apparatus, and an optical disk unit that adjust sampled values, in sampling a signal reproduced from a recording medium recorded with data, the frequencies of the levels of quantized data are counted, a histogram of the frequencies of the levels is created based on the counting results, and more accurate reproduced data is obtained by means of a distribution of the frequencies of the levels in the histogram.
