  • Patent number: 8861323
    Abstract: The present invention optimizes recording power based on correct ? value. Whether an average of modulation values between the 2-4th AUNs is equal to or less than 65% of an average of modulation values between the 5-7th AUNs or not is judged. Otherwise, the gradual emission is performed, the ? value is measured, and then the following requirement is judged: (average of ? values between 5-7th AUNs)?(average of ? values between 2-4th AUNs)?0.18 If each requirement is satisfied, track shift is judged to occur. The recording area of high output is compared with the recording area of lower output to judge whether or not magnitude relation matches the correct magnitude relation. Also, whether the difference between the ? value of high output and the ? value of lower output is equal to or more than the predetermined value (0.18) or not is judged.

  • Patent number: 7697383
    Abstract: In the first and second light-receiving regions equally divided into two in parallel with the track of the optical disc, the reflected light received from the optical disk is converted into electric signals and fed out by individual light-receiving regions. Then, the light-receiving ratio indicating the ratio of amounts of received light is calculated from the amplitude of the electric signal generated in the first light-receiving region and the amplitude of the electric signal generated in the second light-receiving region. Then, it is determined whether or not an absolute value of the light-receiving ratio is larger than a predetermined vale. When the absolute value is larger, the movement of the objective lens in a radial direction is corrected by incorporating a predetermined correction value.

  • Patent number: 7630279
    Abstract: A method for a focus error signal adjustment in an optical disk device which shapes a focus error signal and enables a high-accuracy focus servo is provided. In a DVD-RAM having an emboss data zone and a rewritable data zone, a focus error signal is generated with the DVD-RAM remaining still in a position where an emboss pit is not formed in the rewritable data zone, and a waveform of the FE signal is shaped so that the waveform is symmetrical with respect to a reference point. Then, the FE signal is generated in the emboss data zone and an amplitude of the FE signal is adjusted. The amplitude of the signal which is obtained by increasing the the amplitude of the FE signal whose amplitude is adjusted by approximately 6 dB is applied to the amplitude of the focus error signal in the rewritable data zone. Consequently, a high-accuracy focus servo based on the FE signal, whose amplitude is adjusted and waveform is shaped, can be achieved without an error caused by the emboss pit.

  • Patent number: 7551529
    Abstract: In an optical disc apparatus, the amplitude level of a focus error signal for performing focus search is measured, and in order to bring the measured amplitude level of the focus error signal to a target value, gains of focus servo drive amplifiers which amplify respective detection signals from four respective divided detection regions of an optical detector are set as initial values. As a result, the amplitude level of the focus error signal is adjusted at the target value. Next, the amplitude levels of the detection signals from the respective detection regions are measured, and the gains of the respective focus servo drive amplifiers are adjusted individually so that crosstalk can be cancelled based on the measured amplitude levels of the detection signals.
