Fig. 1 shows a possibility embodiment according to used light recordable-type record carrier 1.But Fig. 1 a is the planimetric map that illustrates along by the arrangement of the light mark note of the represented track center line of reference signs 2.Fig. 1 b shows the amplification view of part 3, but this part 3 shows light mark note 4 and the zone line or the space 5 of arranging along track 2.But this light mark note 4 can be the form in local dent or so-called hole.But, but the light mark of other types note also is suitable, the mark that for example uses phase-change material and obtained.This mark 4 causes for the modulation along the reflection density of the beam of track 2 scanning directions.In Fig. 1 c, provide signal 6, the modulation of this signal indication under the situation of using constant linear velocity passing marker 4 and space 5 patterns along track 2.Along the length of the length of the mark 4 of track 2 and intermediate space 5 some bit locations (comprising) corresponding to signal 6.Bit location length T is corresponding to the period T of signal 6 data clocks.In Fig. 1 b, assign to represent a bit location by the orbit portion that has length L.
But for example can obtain by the applicant is the modulation of disclosed such other types in 91203147.3 in European Patent Application No., and this European patent occurs as file D3 in the reference paper table that this instructions latter end can be found.But Fig. 1 d shows to make and uses up the embodiment that mark is remembered 4 wide variety.The wide variety of mark 4 causes in extra density modulation in the beam of track 2 scannings, consequently produces two components in corresponding signal 6.In the time can not superposeing the component frequency spectrum that causes by width modulated, then can recover the represented information of any modulation separably by the component frequency spectrum that length modulated caused.Fig. 1 e shows the embodiment that use changes at the orbital position that is transverse to track 2 directions.This position modulation has the form that track rises and falls, just known radial track swing.Can also be by easily detecting this track wobble with certification mark 4 employed identical light-beam scanners.By using mark 4 degree of depth or change in location on recording medium 1 plane to obtain other modulation.Fig. 1 f shows the sectional view of the part 3 on the record carrier 1 of line b-b of this modulation of explanation.The transparent liner of reference number 7 expressions.But cover liner 7 with reflection horizon 8.Protective seam 9 covers reflection horizon 8.But have the light mark note 4 that occurs with the hole form on this liner 8.The position or the change in depth in hole 3 are represented by line 10 and 11.When with the pattern shown in the focused radiation bundle scintigram 1f, the variation in mark 4 planes causes can be by easy detected focusing error.
Fig. 2 shows an embodiment of the apparatus according to the invention, and this device is used for additional data is inserted into coded signal and described coded signal is recorded as shown in Figure 1 disc-like record carrier.Receive the first data-signal D1 at first input end 20.This data-signal D1 can represent data, video or audio-frequency information or the like.This data-signal D1 can be analog form or digital form.If this data-signal D1 is an analog form, thereby then provide a digital-to-analog converter 22 that this analog data signal D1 is converted to a digital data signal.Although generally, this A/D converter may cause the n position digital signal, in the situation of sound signal, can use 1 bit A/D converter to be used for being converted into a Bitstream signal BS usually.This Bitstream signal BS only has two different expression symbols, and " 0 " or " 1 ", therefore, this signal BS is a binary signal.This 1 bit A/D converter (also being called as bit stream translation device or δ-Delta modulator) can be used normally f s=44.1,48 or a 32kHz sample frequency n frequency doubly come sound signal D1 is sampled, such frequency for example can be 64*44100=2822400Hz.As the sound signal D1 that digital form is provided, and with the sample frequency f of 44.1kHz sIt is for example during 16 bits that its sampling and this sampling are represented as each sampling, uses still as this sample frequency f sN frequency is doubly carried out over-sampling to this digital audio and video signals.Its result still produces 1 bit bit stream signal BS.
Sound signal is converted to 1 bit bit stream signal has many benefits.Bit stream translation is a kind of high-quality coding method, under the situation with simple this added advantage of decoding circuit, might obtain high-quality decoding or low-quality decoding.
Input end 23 receive typical examples such as watermark data and be inserted into data-signal D1 or corresponding bit stream BS in an additional data signal D2.Provide modifier 24 so that revise bit stream signal BS so that this additional data signal D2 is inserted among the binary data stream BS.What proposed by the applicant is the european patent application No.706174 of file D2 in the reference paper table that this instructions latter end can be found, discloses a kind of this additional data D2 is inserted among the binary data stream BS and does not influence the method for sensory effects basically.Although will provide hereinafter for being explained in more detail of this change,, be noted that the encryption that in this bit stream BS, does not comprise it, and some certain bits of only having replaced this bit stream BS.For example, this watermark bit can be that per 100 bits are replaced 1 bit.Opposite with the encryption situation like this quantizing noise that only improved still can not hinder data D1.Disclosed this method is restricted on the other scope at the rising with quantizing noise in file D2.
According to the specific coding form additional data D2 is inserted among the bit stream BS.According to the present invention, some different coding forms can be used for this purpose.Possible form number is very big and can all be specific for each dish or for every group of dish.Therefore, can provide type generating device 25 to produce the represented specific coding form by format description signal F, F offers modifier 24 with this format description signal.Can have n.f with comprising subsequently sThereby the resultant bit stream BS ' of 1 bit through revising offer extraction filter 26 and obtain to have f sThe long numeric data stream of for example 16 bits of frequency.Use 27 pairs of these long numeric data streams of channel coding device to carry out such being used for of suitable chnnel coding such as EFM modulation 8 bit wide data bytes are converted to 14 channel bit wide channels words.In addition, additive error control information.
For this channel bit is recorded on the optically readable record carrier 1, fibrous root writes beam according to this channel bit modulation.For this purpose, provide modulating device 29 to control to write beam so that can be modulated at the light raadable mark arranged on the track of record carrier 1 and the length in space therebetween according to the channel bit that is obtained.This length modulated has been shown in Fig. 1 b.
Writing unit 30 is provided in addition, and this writing unit comprises that being used for except that laser cell and optical element will be positioned at the device that loop record carrier 1 beam radially writes the luminous point location according to the drive signal that is transmitted by modulating device 29.With drive unit 31 combination, this luminous point that is used for rotating according to the drive signal that is obtained from modulating device 29 this record carrier 1 can move along track.Use the channel bit that modulating device obtained to control this laser cell.
The synchronous S that is produced by clock-generating device 32 can be used for determining to write the speed of this Channel Elements and therefore definite channel clock period T as shown in Fig. 1 c.In addition, provide control device 35 to produce the control signal C that is used for control device.
Also format description information F is offered second code device 33 that is used for this information is encoded to second coded signal.Preferably this second coded signal is modulated the beam that writes that it is different from aforementioned length modulated by second modulating device 34 then.Figure 1 illustrates some examples of this different modulating.Shown in these examples comprise width second modulation (Fig. 1 d) of mark 4, position second modulation (Fig. 1 e) of the track 3 of mark 4 or mark position second modulation (Fig. 1 f) in the record carrier 7.The other types modulation is provided with radial streak, modulation track space width or the like near can being included in disk center.
The use different modulating that transcriber must be able to be read except that institute's record coding and amended bit stream is handled the format description information that is write down.Thereby make the demoder of additional data can be programmed the coded format flexibly of supporting this additional data like this.Can all be specific like this for each dish.To have insertion additional data the bit stream that writes down and corresponding encoded form be connected on the same vehicle, can guarantee to use comfortable like this.Above-mentioned two contents are combined with original legal content.By not only writing down such as the such additional data of watermark data, also record uses other modulation techniques with the used form of this additional data coding, and it is not enough only duplicating the bit stream that is encoded and revised.
Be noted that and can or directly obtain to have this recording of information carrier 1 with for example phase-change material.Perhaps directly obtain: having writing information on the stamper of photographic layer by following manner; subsequently the dish of illuminated mistake is developed, thereby by the casting pressing mold and use a reflectance coating and protective seam to produce a pressing mold of this dish and use this pressing mold to make final record carrier 1.
Usually, 1 bit A/the D converter can also be called as the cell bit scrambler, and bit stream signal can be used as the cell bit encoded signals.Some examples of this cell bit scrambler can be Delta modulator, δ-Delta modulator and form of noise scrambler.They all belong to and have feedback control loop scrambler family.δ-Δ modulation is used for writing down high-quality audio-frequency signal by the audio mode of digital universal disc (DVD), and the f of 2822400Hz is used in this modulation sSample frequency (64*44100) also has the signal to noise ratio (S/N ratio) of 115dB.
Fig. 3 shows an example as δ-Delta modulator of 22 1 embodiment of AD converter among Fig. 2.Interchangeable embodiment is disclosed in file D1.Data-signal D1 is offered the subtracter 41 that is used for deducting output signal BS from input signal D1.Resulting error signal e offered decoding filter 42 (summer or integrator) thus obtain to be imported into a prediction signal in the polarity detector 43.This polarity detector 43 is with by sample frequency f sDetermined speed also produces an output sampling+1 or-1 according to the polarity of this prediction signal.In this embodiment, multiplexer 44 has been formed the modifier among Fig. 1.These multiplexer 44 responses select signal SEL to use watermark bit pattern D2 to replace the selected bits (for example, each the 100th) of polarity detector 43 outputs.In fact, use the δ-Delta modulator shown in Fig. 3, can be at the f of 2822400 (64*44100) Hz sThe acquisition of sample frequency place is used for the signal to noise ratio (S/N ratio) with the 115dB of audio-frequency signal coding.Can find that 1 sampling is replaced in per 100 samplings only increases synchronization noise 1dB.This is corresponding to the watermark bit speed with 28000 bps.
Another example that inserts watermark data D2 is the sampling of reversal phase coding signal y, with watermark data D2 by being represented by the bit period number between the anti-phase sampling continuously.
Fig. 4 shows an example that uses the input waveform 51 that embodiment encodes shown in Fig. 3.This input waveform 51 is consistent with the input signal D1 among Fig. 3, the numeral 52 expressions output signal that be encoded consistent with the bit stream BS among Fig. 3.When input signal became big, this δ-Delta modulator produced and more just samples.As shown in the figure, the input voltage of-0.5V is encoded to three-1V pulse and one+1V pulse train, the input voltage of 0V is encoded to interchangeable-1V pulse and one+1V pulse mode (except the watermark pulse 54 that is inserted into), and the input voltage of general+0.5V is encoded to three+1V pulse and one-1V pulse train.At receiving end by with received pulse shaping again and make it by a low-pass filter this coded signal of decoding once more.In the embodiments of figure 3, come this coded signal of demodulation by 13 sample means with bit stream 52.Numeral 53 expressions are except by the recombination signal the time delay that average treatment caused.
By will-1 sampling replace with+watermark that 1 sampling is carried out in this example handles.This watermark sampling of numeral 54 expressions.Can clearly interrupt+1V and-the replaceable pattern of 1V pulse.But because recombination signal 53 still is similar to input signal 51, therefore its influence of insertion of this watermark is limited.In detail disclosed as institute in file D1, this is because in feedback control loop, this influence is fed back to input end, and after watermark inserts, compensate this influence by subsequently input signal being encoded.
It will be appreciated that, although described the present invention with these embodiment that use aforesaid coding method and watermark insertion method,, the present invention is not limited thereto.
The method of inserting embedded data is very flexibly: quantity and the extracting position that can select to big degree of freedom embedded data.Selection signal SEL among Fig. 3 determines which position of bit stream is the watermark position.This information SEL is included in the common form of the format description information F that is produced by type generating device 25 among Fig. 2.In brief, this format description information F can only comprise that a N position that shows bit stream is several N of watermark position.For example, by replacement-1V respectively ,-1V and+the 6th, 16 and 26 of 1V bit stream, can obtain corresponding watermark pattern D2=' 001 '.
Can also use other method that is used to insert, such as, for example selected sampling of anti-phase this bit stream is represented the watermark data by the bit period number between continuous anti-phase sampling.
Obviously, higher if desired security can be used the more position complicated format that is used to insert the watermark data.Replace fixed number N, can use the variable number sequence, this sequence can produce according to a special algorithm.
But, according to the present invention, by allow to insert the watermark data flexibly form obtain safeguard protection.These needs write down for the explanation of form in addition so that notice is arranged in the programmable decoder of transcriber.As described,, use second code device 33 and second decoding device 34 for the purpose that obtains safer protection with reference to figure 2.Only be that those specific reproduction devices that have the particular detection device can extract the watermark data that is inserted.
Note, insert watermark data or other control data in this way and for example do not comprise, video or similar general data encrypted process main audio data.This coding stream only is subjected to The noise in a small amount, thereby causes the less reduction of signal to noise ratio (S/N ratio) equivalent.But encryption and decryption need the more data treatment circuit, and this can cause the higher cost expense.
For this reason, to carry out the step of revising coded signal in this encoder feedback ring inside.Therefore any correction of coded signal being carried out for adding the watermark purpose is fed and will be compensated in the subsequent encoding operation.
Although, will use aforesaid coding and watermark insertion method that the present invention is described,, the present invention is not limited thereto.
Fig. 5 shows according to of the present invention being used for and reproduces coded data and extract the device of additional data from the record carrier of light recordable-type.
