Abstract: An optical recording/reproducing apparatus includes an optical recording medium in which a holograms are recorded depending on an incident angle of a reference beam. The reference beam is irradiated to holograms while changing the incident angle to generate a reproduction light beam, and an image patterns are detected by an image pattern detector. The continuously output reproduction image patterns are temporarily stored in an image recorder, and the maximum value of reproduction light intensity is detected to generate a trigger signal. Depending on the trigger signal, an optimal image pattern is extracted from continuous reproduction image patterns, and thus, two-dimensional data is decoded.

Abstract: An optical recording and reproducing apparatus according to the present invention utilizes an angle multiplexing interfering method to record multiple pieces of recording data on an optical recording medium. Recording conditions for the multiple recording and management information such as addresses are recorded in the same book according to a coaxial interfering method. In a reproduction mode, the management information is read from a hologram formed according to the coaxial interfering method. The management information is utilized to quickly read the recording data from a hologram formed according to the angle multiplexing interfering method.
