摘要:
According to a method for setting the laser beam power applied to reproduce information recorded on an optical disc, information recorded in a region on the optical disc is reproduced using three or more test reproduction powers (S22B), the number of reproductions until the degradation of the quality of the reproduced signal reaches a prescribed value is determined as the degradation number of reproductions (S22F), the relation between the test reproduction power and the degradation number of reproductions is approximated by a curve, and a reproduction power restricting the degradation of the reproduced signal quality to a predetermined amount or less over a certain guaranteed number of reproductions is determined (S25F). In optical reproduction from an optical disc on which information is recorded, the optimum power of irradiation for reproduction can be set, and degradation of the information due to the reproducing light can be prevented.

摘要:
An optical information processing method and apparatus performs a light irradiating and receiving step, a signal processing step, and an adjusting step of a spherical aberration and a focus offset on the basis of shift amount of first and second control devices and a performance evaluation value. The performance evaluation values for first, second, third and fourth points in an x and y coordinate system are detected, in which an x-coordinate is one of the shift amount of the first control device and the shift amount of the second control device and a y-coordinate is the other, the first point, second and third points having the same y-coordinate and different x-coordinates with each other, the fourth point being provided on a first straight line passing through the first point and being different from the first point.

摘要:
An optical disc on which information can be recorded by recording light has a first recording layer (102) and a second recording layer (103) disposed behind the first recording layer as viewed by the recording light; the first recording layer and the second recording layer have respective power adjustment areas (P1, P2) that are used to adjust the power of the recording light to the optimal recording power at the time of recording of information on each recording layer; a prewrite area (PW) is provided in correspondence to the power adjustment area (P2) used for optimal power adjustment in the second recording layer and restricted areas (A1, A2) on both sides of that power adjustment area (P2). The restricted areas (A1, A2) allow for the diameter of the recording light beam and for lamination misalignment. This configuration enables stable test recording to be carried out in a short time on an optical disc having multiple recording layers.

摘要:
In a medium of the phase change type, a power ratio and modulation degree for use in recording are determined from a recommended pulse width value in the recommended write strategy parameters recorded in the optical disk, the recommended power ratio value, the recommended recording power value, and the characteristics of the optical recording device, and recording is carried out on the optical disk according to the power ratio value and modulation degree value thus determined. Optimal recording can be carried out even on an optical disk for which the optimal write strategy information has not been determined in advance, without the need to store write strategy information suitable for each and every optical disk.
摘要:
A recorded area is reproduced during a suspension of a recording operation; when degradation of the recorded signal is detected (S4, S5) by the signal quality detection means (16), a tilt adjustment is performed in the recorded area, the signal quality of the recorded signal is detected after the tilt adjustment (S6), and if it is still degraded, a recording parameter is altered (step S7). The need to obtain tilt adjustment values for tilt corrections at a plurality of radial positions in advance is eliminated, resulting in reduced apparatus overhead and better recording quality.

In a dye-type optical recording medium, a write strategy for use in recording is determined based on recommended write strategy parameters recorded on an optical disk (160) and the characteristics of the optical recording device, and recording is carried out on the optical disk (160) according to the determined write strategy. In a medium of the phase change type, a power ratio and modulation degree for use in recording are determined from a recommended pulse width value in the recommended write strategy parameters recorded in the optical disk (160), the recommended power ratio value, the recommended recording power value, and the characteristics of the optical recording device, and recording is carried out on the optical disk (160) according to the power ratio value and modulation degree value thus determined. Optimal recording can be carried out even on an optical disk for which the optimal write strategy information has not been determined in advance, without the need to store write strategy information suitable for each and every optical disk.
