Abstract

Provided is a CAV or a zone CAV. A groove which continuously wobbles is preliminary formed and information is recorded in the groove and a land adjacent to the groove, the groove has a first wobble part which is modulated by groove address information, a second wobble part which is modulated by address information of one adjacent land, and a third wobble part which is modulated by address information of the other adjacent land, a first section sandwiched between the second wobble parts of adjacent two grooves and a second section sandwiched between the third wobble parts of the adjacent two grooves are formed on the land, and one of phases of wobbles on both sides of the first section and phases of wobbles on both sides of the second section are substantially in-phase.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. An optical information recording medium of a constant angular velocity (CAV) or a zone CAV, comprising:
a groove which continuously wobbles and is preliminarily formed, and a land which is formed adjacent to the groove, wherein information is recorded in the groove and the land,
wherein the groove has a first wobble part which is modulated by groove address information of the groove, a second wobble part which is modulated by address information of the land adjacent to the groove and a third wobble part which is modulated by address information of another land adjacent to the groove,
a first section sandwiched between the second wobble parts of two adjacent grooves and a second section sandwiched between the third wobble parts of the two adjacent grooves are formed on the land, and
one of phases of wobbles on both sides of the first section and phases of wobbles on both sides of the second section are substantially in-phase.

2. The optical information recording medium according to claim 1 , wherein the first wobble part, the second wobble part, and the third wobble part are formed on different positions in a track direction.

3. An optical information reproducing device configured to optically reproduce an optical information on recording medium of a constant angular velocity (CAV) or a zone CAV comprising:
a groove which continuously wobbles and is preliminarily formed, and a land adjacent to the groove, wherein information is recorded in the groove and the land,
wherein the groove has a first wobble part which is modulated by groove address information of the groove, a second wobble part which is modulated by address information of the land adjacent to the groove and a third wobble part which is modulated by address information of another land adjacent to the groove,
a first section sandwiched between the second wobble parts of two adjacent grooves and a second section sandwiched between the third wobble parts of the two adjacent grooves are formed on the land,
one of phases of wobbles on both sides of the first section and phases of wobbles on both sides of the second section are substantially in-phase, and
the optical information reproducing device is configured to reproduce the address information of the land, when the land is scanned, from one of the first section and the second section in which the phases of the wobbles are substantially in-phase.

4. The optical information reproducing device according to claim 3 ,
wherein a determination signal for determining one of the address information reproduced in the first section and the address information reproduced in the second section as valid, is added to each of the second wobble part and the third wobble part.

5. The optical information reproducing device according to claim 4 ,
wherein the determination signal is a waveform signal in which a harmonic signal having different polarities depending on data is added to a basic waveform.

6. The optical information reproducing device according to claim 3 ,
wherein the optical information reproducing device has a detector that is divided into at least two in a track direction of the recording medium, and detects return light from the recording medium, and
wherein the optical information reproducing device reproduces the first wobble part and the second wobble part by output of a light receiving part on both sides in the track direction of the detector.

7. The optical information reproducing device according to claim 3 , wherein a basic waveform is modulated in a minimum shift keying (MSK) format by the address information.
