Abstract

A compact disc has an audio component and a video component recorded on respective spiral tracks 2,3 which are concentric and closely interleaved. A compact disc player for reading the audio and video components has two pick-up elements 7,8, one for each track, which are controlled so as to read out from the disc at respective points which are diametrically opposite each other and at approximately equal distances from the centre of rotation of the disc. Video digital data may be omitted at each position corresponding to the start of audio passages so that a standard compact disc player will lock on to the audio track, or the video track may be suitably encoded. <IMAGE>

Description

SPECIFICATION Electronic digital storage apparatus This invention relates to electronic digital storage apparatus, and in particular to such apparatus of a type comprising an optical record carrier (commonly referred to as a compact disc) on which digital data is recorded in optically readable form, together with an optical read device for reading the digital data from the record carrier as the latter is rotated about a central axis.
The publication "Philips Technical Review", Volume 40, 1982, No. 6, comprises four articles which describe various constructional and functional features of an electronic digital storage apparatus of the above type. The contents of this publication are hereby incorporated by reference into this specification.
Compact discs which are presently available to the public store digital data for audio reproduction only, this digital data usually representing (stereo) music. Recently, an audio-video compact disc has been proposed for reproducing music or other sound accompanied by a visual display on an associated television display device, for example a television monitor. The visual display might consist of still picture and/or text appropriate to being a visual accompaniment to reproduced music or the spoken word. Both the audio and the video components of the stored information would be recorded in digital form.
A conventional compact disc has a single spiral track of 'pits' and 'lands' which constitute the recorded digital data, and the latter is read out from the compact disc as a serial bit stream by the optical read device. In a suggested implementation of an audio-video compact disc, the recorded data for the audio component is re-formatted, compared with the recorded data on presently available compact discs, to provide storage space on the disc for the video component. The intention is that the playing time of the audio component remains approximately what it would be without the video component, that is, in excess of one hour. However, such reformatting requires the audio sampling rate and/or audio word length to be reduced, which degrades the quality of the audio reproduction and, furthermore, renders such an audio-video compact disc unplayable on standard compact disc players.
It is an object of the present invention to provide an audio-video compact disc that does not suffer from the above drawbacks.
According to a first aspect of the present invention, there is provided for an electronic digital storage apparatus of a type comprising an optical record carrier on which digital data is recorded in optically readable form, together with an optical read device for reading the digital data, an optical record carrier on which said digital data comprises an audio component and a video component which are recorded on respective concentric and closely interleaved spiral tracks of 'pits' and 'lands'.
The use of a separate spiral track for the video component reduces the playing time of the audio component compared with a conventional audio compact disc, but it does give the advantage of compatibility in that an audio-video disc in accordance with the invention would be playable on a standard compact disc player because its audio component has not been reformatted.
Thus, in carrying out this first aspect of the present invention, the spiral track for the video component can have digital data omitted at each position corresponding to a position on the spiral track for the audio component where digital data for the start of an active (musical or other sound) audio passage is recorded. This will ensure that a standard compact disc player (that is a compact disc player adapted to play a compact disc having only a single spiral track on which an audio component is recorded) will lock onto the spiral track for the audio component and ignore the spiral track for the video component.
Alternatively, the spiral track for the video component can be encoded at each position corresponding to the start position of an active audio passage on the spiral track for the audio component such that the standard compact disc player rejects the spiral track for the video component at that position and seeks out instead the spiral track for the autio component.
According to a second aspect of the present invention, there is provided for an electronic digital storage apparatus of a type comprising an optical record carrier on which digital data representing combined audio-video information is recorded in optically readable form on two concentric and interleaved spiral tracks according to said first aspect of the invention, together with an optical read device for reading the digital data, an optical read device comprising two optical pick-up elements which are operable to read out the digital data from a respective one of the two spiral tracks, which two optical pick-up elements are controlled so as to read out data at respective points which are at approximately equal distances from the centre of rotation of the optical record carrier. Suitably, said read out points are diametrically opposite each other.
Because of the positioning of the two pickup elements and the fact that the two spiral tracks are concentric and closely interleaved, the variation in the speed of rotation of the optical record carrier which is required to maintain a constant rate of data read out from one special track ensures that the rate of data read out from the other spiral track is also maintained constant.
The invention also extends to an electronic digital storage apparatus of the type referred to comprising in combination an optical record carrier and an optical read device according to said first and second aspects.
In order that the invention may be more fully understood reference will now be made by way of example to the accompanying drawings, of which: Figure 1 shows diagrammatically an optical record carrier having two spiral tracks in accordance with the first aspect of the invention; Figure 2 shows diagrammatically an optical read device in accordance with the second aspect of the invention; Figure 3 illustrates the encoding of digital data on a spiral track of an optical record carrier; Figure 4 shows diagrammatically a signal processing circuit for processing the audio component read from the combined audio-video optical record carrier; and Figure 5 shows diagrammatically a signal processing circuit processing the video component read from the combined audio-video optical record carrier.
Referring to the drawings, there is shown in Fig. 1 an optical record carrier 1 in the form of a compact disc on which two spiral tracks 2 and 3 are provided. These two spiral tracks 2 and 3 are concentric and closely interleaved and have the same pitch between adjacent turns. As shown in the sectional view in Fig.
3, the compact disc 1 has substrate 4 of transparent material, a reflecting layer 5 and a protective layer 6. The two spiral tracks are formed in the compact disc 1 as respective successions of 'pits' and 'lands' which constitute recorded digital data. In accordance with the first aspect of the invention the digital data on one of these two spiral tracks comprises an audio component and the digital data on the other of these two spiral tracks comprises a video component. The compact disc 1 shown in Fig. 1 is not drawn to scale.
Precise dimensions are given in the publication "Philips Technical Review" in respect of a compact disc having a single spiral track. Similar dimensions would apply for the two-track compact disc of the present invention but, of course, the pitch of each track would be doubled because of the track interleaving.
The optical read device shown in Fig. 2 comprises two optical pick-up elements 7 and 8, each of which may be implemented in the same manner as the optical pick-ups described in the publication "Philips Technical Review". In accordance with the second aspect of the invention, these two pick-ups 7 and 8 have the laser spots 9 and 10 of their respective laser tracking systems focussed, as indicated by the dotted lines 11 and 12, at points which are diametrically opposite each other and at approximately equal distances from the centre of the compact disc 1. The optical two pick-up elements 7 and 8 are controlled by a common control system 13 such that their respective laser tracking systems each cause their laser spot 9 and 10 to describe a radial arc across the compact disc 1, so that each of the spiral tracks 2 and 3 is scanned completely.The dotted lines 14 and 15 represent the radial arc paths travelled by the laser spots 9 and 10, respectively. As indicated by the dotted line 16, the control system 13 also controls the drive for the compact disc 1 so as to vary the rotational speed of the latter in dependence on the radial position(s) of the laser spots 9 and 10 so that the two tracks are scanned optically at a constant velocity, thereby ensuring a constant rate of data read out from the compact disc 1.
For the sake of completeness, Fig. 3 illustrates the encoding of digital data on each of the spiral tracks 2 and 3. Fig. 3a is a crosssection through the compact disc 1 in the direction of the spiral tracks. This cross-section shows, as aforesaid, the substrate 4 of transparent material, the reflecting layer 5 and the protective layer 6. Pits such as 17 form each track in conjunction with lands such as 18 between successive pits. The combinations of pits and lands along a track are read optically by the relevant optical pick-up element to produce a bi-level signal. This bi-level signal is illustrated in idealised form in Fig. 3b in which I, the intensity of the signal read by the pickup element, is plotted against time t.For a given clock rate c, after each land/pit or pit/land transition a 1 bit is produced at the next clock pulse, and a 0 bit is produced at each other clock pulse, to generate a series of data bits DB.
The series of data bits representing the audio component read from the relevant spiral track is processed by the signal processing circuit shown in Fig. 4. This processing circuit comprises a demodulator 19 which reconstitutes digital information, representing the audio component, from the applied series of data bits DB. This digital information is then stored temporarily in a buffer memory 20 from where is it read and applied to an errorcorrection circuit 21. After error-correction, the digital information is applied via an interpolation filter 22 to two digital-to-analogue converters 23 and 24 which are responsive to create analog audio output signals for two audio (stereo) channels L and R. The circuit elements 21, 23 and 24 are synchronised by a clock pulse generator 25. The bit stream is read from the buffer memory 20 into the error-correction circuit 21 at a rate determined by the clock pulse generator 25. However, the bit stream is written into the buffer memory 20 from the demodulator 19 at a rate that depends on the rotational speed of the compact disc. A control signal CS derived from the buffer memory 'fill' state is produced as a speed control reference for the disc speed control system (13-Fig. 2). This speed coritrol reference can ensure, for instance, that the buffer memory 20 is at all times filled to half its capacity.
The series of data bits representing the video component read from the relevant signal track is processed by the signal processing circuit shown in Fig. 5. This processing circuit has a demodulator 19', a buffer memory 20', an error-correction circuit 21' and an interpolator filter 22' which correspond respectively to the elements 19 to 22 in the processing circuit of Fig. 4. The processing circuit of Fig. 5 additionally comprises logic circuit 26 which is responsive to control information in the video component to write display information into a bit-map display memory 27. This display information is periodically read from the memory 27 in a recurrent cycle under the control of the clock pulse generator 25' and the information read out addresses a colour look-up table 28 the output from which is applied to three digital-to-analogue converter 29, 30 and 31 which are responsive to produce analog video signals R,G,B for deriving a colour television monitor.
