Description

The read method of multi-layer recording medium
Technical field
The invention relates to the read method of a kind of recording medium and recording medium, particularly about a kind of read method being applied in recording medium in sandwich construction and this recording medium.
Background technology
Simple layer recording medium is bound to have certain recording capacity, but usually because capacity that is audio-visual or digital data is too large, so that simple layer recording medium cannot record whole data completely, two-layer above recording medium must be divided into record whole data, therefore whole data will be cut into plural part, be recorded to respectively in each recording layer.Along with Information technology constantly progressive and development, the CD used as recording medium has also been required more recording capacity, double-deck (dual layer) DVD CD is a kind of in response to the product under high recording capacity demand, it is by two information recording layers, makes the recording capacity of DVD CD rise to 8.5GB from the 4.7GB of script individual layer DVD CD.
Figure 1A is data are read in display principle from double record layer (recording layer) CD, as shown in the figure, pit (Pit) and face, land (Land) of multiple different length composition is formed in the appropriate location of this transparency carrier, and coating one semi-reflective layer or a reflection horizon can form this first recording layer L1 and the second recording layer L2 on each layer pit and face, land, one is provided with in order to avoid the signal between this first recording layer L1 and the second recording layer L2 mutually to disturb and there is wall (space layer) L3 of suitable thickness between this first recording layer L1 and the second recording layer L2, its embodiment is photoplasticity resin (Transparent photosetting Resin, TR), and make this first recording layer L1 that some light can be allowed to reflect by the thickness in this reflection horizon of adjustment, this second recording layer L2 can allow all light reflections.When player plays this CD, can by the object lens in this optical read head of adjustment (Optical Heads) and the distance between video disc recording layer (the first recording layer L1 and the second recording layer L2), make the focus point of this laser beam (Laser Beam) (focusing point) focus on respectively on this first recording layer L1 and the second recording layer L2, so namely can read the record data on this first recording layer L1 and the second recording layer L2.
It should be noted that, data can carry out record with smallest record unit " physical blocks ", are distributed in each recording layer, and each physical blocks all has a numerical value indicates, and are called " physical block address ".When this recording medium have two-layer or two-layer more than recording layer time, the factor of two aspects must be considered: one when distributing this physical block address, each physical block address in whole recording medium must be unique (except the tracking Path Method of PTP (Parallel Track Path)), if when there is identical physical block address in this first recording layer and the second recording layer, then disk player cannot the information only needed for the judgement of its physical block address be recorded on this first recording layer L1 or the second recording layer L2.They are two years old, the physical block address being assigned to each recording layer to need to be transformed into easily on the first recording layer on any one address, it is because physical block address is a positional information, in order to make the optical read head of disk player can move on to quickly and accurately on required block, the accurate distance of required movement must be calculated by this physical block address.
The double-layer CD used on the market at present mostly adopts Opposite Track Path (Opposite TrackPath; OTP) tracking Path Method, as shown in Figure 1B, first the method reads data by optical read head from the inner ring Lead in Zone of Layer 0 recording layer, and along Data Zone read always this be positioned at the Middle Zone region of outer ring time, namely leap to Layer 1 recording layer, and from the Middle Zone region being positioned at outer ring, read data until move into place the Lead-out Zone region in inner ring.Due to optical read head after often having read all data of a recording layer without the need to adjusting to innermost circle, directly can read the data of next record layer, therefore, optical read head can be saved and search time of lower data, generally all carry out this method.
United States Patent (USP) No. 5881032 Patent Case " Optical Disk, And Optical DiskReproduction Method And Apparatus Implementing a MathematicalComplementary Relationship For Plural Layers " propose a kind of position encoded rule of recording medium, wherein this recording medium comprises multiple recording layer, reproduction direction (reproduction directions) contrary (as shown in Figure 2 A) of this odd-level and the spiral fashion rail ditch (spiral grooves) on even level, being assigned to the physical block address be positioned on same radius position on odd-level and even level is the numerical value of complementary relationship.
Again as shown in Figure 2 B, it is an address assignment schematic diagram comprising the recording medium of dual recording layer in above-mentioned patent, in figure, this is positioned at ground floor L1 physical block address (Physical Sector Address) X on the r of same radius position and second layer L2 physical block address X ' is complementary relationship.Such as, if this ground floor L1 physical block address be positioned in this radius r is 030000h, then the physical block address in this second layer on same radius position must be FCFFFFh (wherein, h represents sexadecimal counting method).As shown in the figure, this shadow region 1a and shadow region 1b is Lead-In Area (lead-in area) and mesozone (middle area) respectively, white space between this Lead-In Area 1a and mesozone 1b is user block of information, the physical block address of the inner radii of this ground floor user area is Xin, the physical block address of outer radii be then Xout (wherein, Xin < Xout), the physical block address of this ground floor L1 is sequentially increased progressively to outer ring by inner ring, and the physical block address of complement code as this corresponding second layer L2 of the ground floor L1 physical block address of same Radius (R) will be positioned at, thus, each physical block address of this second layer L2 is sequentially increased progressively to inner ring by outer ring, in addition, the final physical block address of this ground floor L1 and the initial physical block address of second layer L2 are numerically in discontinuous situation.
Again as shown in Figure 2 C, it is an address assignment schematic diagram comprising the recording medium of four recording layers, as shown in the figure, for making the physical block address of physical block address difference at this ground floor L1, second layer L2 of this third layer L3, the 4th layer of L4, a character (byte) need be increased in this physical block address, when the physical block address supposing this third layer L3 is 0130000h, according to this physical block address only after 3Bytes adopt the mode of principle of complementarity, the physical block address that can calculate on the 4th layer of L4 in same radius is 01CFFFFh.
The regular feature due to this address coding method of the geocoding that above-mentioned patent discloses is that approximate first recording layer of corresponding address and the physical block address of the second recording layer are complementary relationships on DVD CD radial direction, thus this address coding method is only applicable to the data structure of DVD-dual layer CD, cause the extendibility of this coding rule poor, not there is versatility, if when this address coding method being applied in the DVD CD of more than three layers, then must increase extra Byte record, this measure can reduce the storage area of DVD CD undoubtedly, if calculate with DVD ray Disc specifications, the storage area of its each recording layer recorded data will reduce about 2.4MBytes.In addition, be in the DVD CD of 12 centimeters at diameter, region between radius 24mm ~ 58mm is data recorded area, if carry out geocoding according to this geocoding rule, in the wide area that can record in 3Bytes, only use the configuration address that 030000h ~ 2930E9h and D6CF16h ~ FCFFFFh two pieces is minimum, middle more vast configurable address (2930E9h ~ D6CF16h) then can not be used completely, wastes too many configurable storage address (as shown in Figure 2 D), moreover, the access site of video-audio data in general CD, with logical blocks position arrangement in file system, therefore when CD-ROM drive on a dvd disc access data time, the switching motion of logical block addresses and physical block address must be carried out, according to general rule in the industry, the data recorded area of general DVD CD is for start address with physical block address 030000h, logical block addresses is then start address with 000000h, thus at CD-ROM drive when reading the data on physical block address, need to change in advance with logical block addresses, this patent is the reduction formula coordinating the coding rule of its complimentary fashion to disclose:
When PSA is positioned at ground floor, (LSA)=(PSA)-(Xin)
When PSA is positioned at the second layer, (LSA)=(PSA)+[2* (Xout)+2]-(Xin)
But the conversion rule of above-mentioned LSA and PSA, be only applicable to carry out the DVD-dual layer CD of complimentary fashion, therefore, this scaling method also cannot be applicable to the CD of more than three layers of this patent, because the 1Byte added inapplicable complimentary fashion.
From the above, how providing a kind of and be applicable to multiple recording layer and effectively utilize the data structure of configurable address, is current problem demanding prompt solution.
