Abstract: A land/groove track discriminating method and apparatus for an optical recording medium having a land/groove structure which can stably discriminate the kind of a track even in an unstable state of the system. The kind of the track is discriminated by using the differential characteristic of a tracking error signal in a header region, by using the relation that the phase of a wobbling signal in the lang track is opposite to the phase of the wobbling signal in the groove track, or by comparing phase levels of delayed first and second header region signals. Accordingly, the servo control suitable to the kind of the track can be performed at a proper time, and thus an accurate tracking control can be performed with respect to an optical disc having the land/groove track structure.
