摘要:
Provided is a method of recording data on an optical recording medium having a plurality of addressable unit areas. 62 sync frames, each having a sync code and data, can be recorded in each of the addressable unit areas. Thus, user data can be recorded on a recordable optical disc at a higher density.
摘要:
A circuit which recovers a synchronization code, and a method thereof. Where a synchronization code is not detected from an incoming bitstream, a plurality of synchronization code recovery candidate patterns are compared with an original synchronization pattern, and location data to produce an optimal synchronization pattern is determined and generated on the basis of a result of the comparison. The synchronization code is recovered to a location corresponding to the location data. Alternatively, where a synchronization code is not detected from an incoming bitstream, a plurality of synchronization code recovery candidate patterns are error-corrected, and location data to produce an optimal synchronization pattern is determined and generated on the basis of a result of the error correction. The synchronization code is recovered to a location corresponding to the location data. Accordingly, a damaged synchronization code can be recovered by inserting a synchronization code to a more accurate location, further increasing the reliability of data.
摘要:
An apparatus, method, and an optical storage medium to generate an error correction block include a data block generation unit processing digital data on a byte-by-byte basis and arranging the processed digital data from 0th to (N−1)th columns and from 0th to (M−1)th rows to form (M×N) data blocks. A matrix block generation unit arranges the (M×N) data blocks in K rows according to a data transmission sequence to form a matrix block. A first codeword generation unit adds a first error correction check word of 2×K bytes to each of N columns to form a first codeword of ((K×M)+2×K) bytes. A second codeword generation unit adds a second error correction check word of P bytes to each of ((K×M)+2×K) rows to form a second codeword of (N+P) bytes.
摘要:
A decoding method and an apparatus operate by performing error correction on code words of an error correcting code block in one direction selected from a row direction and a column direction, indicating in error flags the remaining code words except at least some code words from code words having uncorrectable errors, and performing error correction on code words in the other direction based on the error flags. Accordingly, errors that have been conventionally considered as being uncorrectable may now be corrected.
摘要:
An optical recording medium, a data recording or reproducing apparatus, and a data recording or reproducing method used by the data recording or reproducing apparatus. In a method of recording data on an optical disc, each of a plurality of error correction code (ECC) blocks is divided into a plurality of partitions. Next, data from the partitions is interleaved so that each of the ECC blocks is alternately and equally selected to generate a recording block. The generated recording block is modulated and recorded on an optical disc. As a result, the optical recording medium, the data recording apparatus, and the data recording method used by the apparatus are compatible with the format of a conventional digital versatile disc (DVD) and have higher error correction rates. In a reproducing method, the recording block is deinterleaved.
摘要:
An optical information recording medium, a data recording apparatus, a data recording method used by the recording apparatus, and a data reproducing apparatus are provided, in which the optical information recording medium includes data provided in one or more recording blocks. A recording block of the optical information recording medium is generated by alternately arranging identifiers from ones of error correction code (ECC) blocks in the recording block, wherein each ECC block comprises a plurality of sectors having corresponding identifiers.
摘要:
A method of formatting a recording medium, and a host apparatus and/or recording and/or reproducing apparatus which use the method. The method includes providing information regarding a size and/or location of a user data area actually allocated on the recording medium after allocation of the user data area in a data area on the recording medium to format the recording medium.
摘要:
An error flag generation apparatus and method for error correction, wherein the apparatus includes: a frame-sync error memory which stores frame-sync error information for each data block; a BIS (Burst Indicator Subcode) error flag memory which stores a BIS error flag for each data block; and an error flag generator, which generates an error flag indicating error existence/absence for ECC (Error-Correction Coding) data with reference to the frame-sync error information stored in the frame-sync error memory and the BIS error flag stored in the BIS error flag memory.
摘要:
An apparatus and method for recording and/or reproducing data on a disc are provided using padding information, and a corresponding information storage medium. The recording method includes recording a recording unit block in which invalid data is padded in part of the block and recording padding information indicating that the invalid data is included. According to the method, a disc drive becomes able to distinguish valid data from invalid data in an error correction block such that reliability of reproduction increases and stability of the system is improved.
