Description

  The present invention relates to an optical disc apparatus provided with a wobble signal detection circuit and an information recording method.

  Optical discs such as DVD + R and DVD + RW have information tracks that are wobbled (meandered) at a fixed period, and the tracks are previously formed in a spiral on the substrate of the optical disc by the phase modulation method (PSK method = Phase Shift Keying). Things are used.

  In order to create ADIP (Address In Pre-groove) information and the like by detecting and creating a wobble signal based on the light receiving signal of a light receiving element such as a DVD + R, DVD + RW, etc. As the wobble signal detection circuit to be provided, a circuit as shown in FIG. 15 is used. The wobble signal detection circuit in the illustrated example shows only the first half until the digital wobble signal and the analog wobble signal are generated based on the voltage signals VA to VD obtained from the respective light receiving element regions of the four-divided light receiving elements.

  First, each of the voltage signals VA to VD is individually sampled and held by the sample and hold circuit (S / H) 100, and VA, VC, VB, and VC are added by the adder 101, and then 0.5 by the multiplier 102. Double processing is performed to calculate 0.5 × (VA + VC) and 0.5 × (VB + VC). Thereafter, the balance AGC circuit 103 balances the amplitude of 0.5 × (VA + VC) and 0.5 × (VB + VC), and the subtractor 104 gives 0.5 × (VA + VC) −0.5 × (VB + VC). An operation is performed and input to the filter circuit 105. The filter circuit 105 includes a BPF path for a digital wobble signal by a BPF (band pass filter) 106, and an HPF + LPF path for an analog wobble signal by an HPF (high pass filter) 107 and an LPF (low pass filter) 108. Consists of. On the output side of the BPF 106, for example, a binarizer 109 using a comparator is provided.

  Here, the problem is variation in the cut-off frequency fc of the LPF 108 part of the HPF + LPF path. The accuracy of the cut-off frequency fc of the LPF 108 is strict, and variations among circuits become conspicuous during mass production. If the cut-off frequency fc varies, the phase of the analog wobble signal also deviates back and forth from the ideal phase (solid line) according to the height as shown in FIG. When recording information on an optical disc such as DVD + RW, the recording start position is set based on the analog wobble signal. Therefore, if the phase of the analog wobble signal is shifted, the recording start position is also optimal as shown in FIG. It will shift from the position.

  In order to solve this problem, for example, according to Patent Document 1, when overwriting a recorded disc, reproduced data from the recorded portion is used as a reference signal to the clock generator. In the area where information is newly recorded, a method has been proposed in which the clock generation signal recorded in the recorded part is switched in advance to match the clock phase and the recording start position is set to the optimum value. .

  As a method other than Patent Document 1, a disk (hereinafter, referred to as a mirror disk) in which a 14T sync frame portion is provided with a 6T mirror portion (a portion that cannot be written and has high reflectivity) is adjusted to an optimum recording position. There is a way. In this adjustment method, 1 ECC (1 recording block of DVD) is recorded on a mirror disk, and after recording, the disk is read to observe the RF signal waveform (see FIG. 18). Then, the optimum recording position is obtained from the phase difference between the center of the 14T part and the center of the mirror part of the RF signal (when the 14T center coincides with the mirror part center, the recording start position is in an optimum state). Thereafter, the recording start position setting parameter (hereinafter referred to as timeset, see FIG. 19) P1, P2, or P3 is set and adjusted in accordance with the phase difference. That is, even if a phase delay occurs in the wobble signal, the recording start position can be optimized by adjusting the timeset.

  However, in the case of Patent Document 1, it can be applied only to an optical disc that already has a recording portion. Also, it is good for an optical disc recorded at the correct recording start position, but in the case of an optical disc having a recording part that is not recorded at the correct recording start position, recording may start from the wrong recording start position. become.

  In the latter case, the adjustment method has to use a special disk, which increases the cost. Further, since it is necessary to actually record on a disk and actually reproduce it to check the state of the RF signal, the time required for the adjustment is greatly increased.

  Also, regarding the inside of the filter circuit, for example, if the phase relationship between the analog wobble signal and the digital wobble signal also varies due to variations in the cut-off frequency fc of the LPF, multiplication processing or the like does not work. Appropriate ADIP information cannot be obtained. As a result, the address information and the synchronization signal are also adversely affected.

The sin wave generating circuit 51 generates a sin wave S6 having the same phase as the digital wobble signal S5 as shown in FIG.

  The analog wobble signal S2 A / D converted by the A / D converter 52 and the digital wobble signal converted to the sin wave S6 are multiplied by the multiplier 53, and the multiplication result as shown in FIG. The signal S7 is integrated by the integrator 54 to obtain an integration result signal S8 as shown in FIG. The integration result signal S8 is sampled and held by the S / H 56 and input to the ADIP information detector 57 as a signal S9 as shown in FIG. The ADIP information detector 57 detects ADIP information S10 including address information and a synchronization signal as shown in FIG. 7 (j) based on the signal S9. In the decoder 17 to which the ADIP information S10 is input, the synchronization detector 61 outputs an ADIP synchronization signal ADIPsync = S11 as shown in FIG. 7 (k). The ADIP synchronization signal ADIPsync = S11 passes through the delay circuit 64, which is a phase adjustment circuit that shifts the phase of the input signal and then outputs the ADIP synchronization signal ADIPsync = S12, and is input to the encoder 14. The encoder 14 creates a write timing signal S13 based on the ADIP synchronization signal ADIPsync = S12, and starts recording by the laser control circuit 13 under an AND condition with the write command S14 from the CPU 24.

  It is assumed that a certain time interval e is taken between the synchronization signal ADIPsync and the write timing signal (for example, 16 wbl cycle = 32T × 15). In addition, the synchronization signal ADIPsync and the write timing signal are L → H → L once every ADIP time (= 93 wbl cycle = 32T × 93), and the phase modulation unit at the head of 1 ADIP time becomes H. (Referred to as # 0 shown in FIG. 7).

  In such an operation, before the filter processing by the filter circuit 44, that is, at the time of the signal S1, there is no phase shift that affects the phase demodulation or the like. However, after the filter processing by the filter circuit 44, for example, due to variations in the cut-off frequency fc of the LPF 47 unit, a shift occurs in the phase of the analog wobble signal, and a shift occurs in the generation timing of the write timing signal S13. There is a possibility that the recording start position will deviate from the optimum position. In FIG. 7B, “a” represents a phase delay caused by the LPF 47.

  Therefore, in the present embodiment, an adjustment function for adjusting the shift of the recording start position due to the phase shift in the filter circuit 44 to the optimum position is added. Referring to FIG. 8 showing a part of the wobble signal detection circuit 27, in this embodiment, a filter circuit 44 to which the wobble signal S1 from the optical disk 1 is input, here, a path between the HPF 46 and the LPF 47. A phase comparator 65 is provided as a phase difference detecting means for detecting a phase difference between signals before and after the input / output of the input / output signal. For example, a phase difference corresponding to the phase delay a shown in FIG. Has been.

  On the other hand, in the optical disk apparatus 10, a delay circuit (delay) 64 as an adjusting means for appropriately adjusting the phase of the synchronization signal ADIPsync = S11 that affects the timing of the write timing signal S13 includes the synchronization detector 61 and the encoder 14. The delay circuit 64 is configured such that the phase can be arbitrarily adjusted by setting the delay time timeset (recording start position setting parameter) of the delay circuit 64. Here, there is a proportional relationship as shown in FIG. 9 between the phase difference between the signals before and after the input and output of the path between the HPF 46 and the LPF 47 and the delay time timeset. Note that the proportional relationship shown in FIG. 9 can be easily created, for example, by recording a mirror disk in increments of 1 ECC while changing the timeset, and reproducing the portion. The timing of the write timing signal S13 can be optimized by obtaining in advance and adjusting and setting the delay time timeset of the delay circuit 64 in accordance with the phase difference detected by the phase comparator 65.

  Here, details of the adjustment setting of the recording timing based on the phase difference detected by the phase comparator 65 will be described with reference to FIG. 10 that shows an excerpt of FIG. To do. FIG. 10 is a waveform diagram showing the relationship between the phase delay a in the path between the HPF 46 and the LPF 47 in the filter circuit 44, the delay amount d by the delay circuit 64, and the write timing signal S13. First, the phase of the synchronization signal ADIPsync = S11 by the synchronization detector 61 is delayed by the amount of delay of the phase of the analog wobble signal S2 in the path between the HPF 46 and the LPF 47 = phase delay a. Then, the phase of the synchronization signal ADIPsync = S12 after the delay processing by the delay circuit 64 is delayed by the delay amount d in timeset. Further, it is assumed that the phase relationship between the synchronization signal ADIPsync = S12 and the write timing signal S13 has a difference of a constant interval e. Further, according to the standard, the wobble signal wbl is one block in 93 cycles, and the write start timing is wbl # 14 + 24T (wbl # 14 is a signal in the 15th cycle counted from the phase modulation unit wbl # 0, 1 wobble cycle = 32T). It is stipulated to bring it to the position. Here, 24T is 1T × 24 of the RF signal. For example, if the disk rotation speed is equivalent to 1 time, 1T≈38.5 ns, and if it is equivalent to 2 times, 1T≈19.2 ns, equivalent to 4 times. For example, 1T ≒ 9.6ns, ... As shown in FIG. 7, since the detected wobble signal is delayed by about one cycle with respect to the actual wobble signal on the optical disc 1, recording starts on the optical disc 1 from the position of approximately wbl # 15 + 24T. (# 15 in FIG. 15 etc. means this).

in this case,
a + d + e = wbl16 cycle + 24bit
= 16 × 32T + 24T
If this holds, the write timing signal is in accordance with the standard. Therefore,
d = 16 × 32T + 24T−ae
The delay time timeset may be adjusted and set so that

  Thus, according to the present embodiment, the wobble signal S1 obtained from the information track 2 of the optical disc 1 is input to the input side of the filter circuit 44 in the optical disc apparatus 10, and the path input / output between the HPF 46 and the LPF 47 at that time is input. Since the phase difference between the preceding and following signals is detected by the phase comparator 65 and the delay time timeset of the delay circuit 64 is adjusted according to the detected phase difference, the timing of the write timing signal is optimized. The recording operation can be performed from the optimum recording start position without being affected by the phase shift in the filter circuit 44. In particular, by performing these detection / adjustment operations at fixed timings, it is possible to always perform the recording operation from the optimum recording start position without being affected by sudden power supply voltage fluctuations or temperature changes. In addition, since the playback speed changes at the time of playback in the CAV (constant angular velocity) system, the frequency of the wobble signal naturally changes and the optimum adjustment value also changes, but the transition from the playback in the CAV system to the recording operation. Sometimes, by performing these detection / adjustment operations, the recording operation can be performed from the optimum recording start position.

  In the present embodiment, the phase comparator 65 detects the phase difference between the signals before and after the input / output of the HPF 46 + LPF 47 path. However, as another embodiment, the signal before and after the input / output of the BPF 45 is detected. The delay amount timeset of the delay circuit 64 may be adjusted and set according to the detected phase difference. In this case, the phase of the analog wobble signal is adjusted in accordance with the phase of the digital wobble signal.

  In this embodiment, the phase difference between the signals before and after the input / output of the filter circuit 44 is directly detected by the phase comparator 65. As another embodiment, for example, FIG. As shown, the amplitude ratio a ′ (= output amplitude of the HPF46 + LPF47 path / input amplitude of the HPF46 + LPF47 path) of the signal before and after the input / output of the HPF46 + LPF47 path when the wobble signal S1 based on the information track 2 is input is represented by an amplitude comparator ( (Amplitude ratio detection means) 66, and based on this amplitude ratio a ′, a phase difference detector (phase difference detection means) 67 detects a phase difference (phase delay) a and adjusts the delay time timeset of the delay circuit 64. You may make it do. In this case, the filter characteristic of the LPF 47 is measured in advance, and the relationship between the amplitude ratio and the phase delay corresponding to the filter characteristic is written in the control program, and the phase difference detector 67 uses this relationship to determine the amplitude ratio a. What is necessary is just to obtain | require the phase difference a from '.

  Another embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. In the present embodiment, the optical disk apparatus 10 is provided with an adjustment function that eliminates the bad demodulation characteristics of ADIP information caused by the phase shift in the filter circuit 44. In FIG. 12, only the relevant portion in the wobble signal detection circuit 27 is extracted and shown.

  In the present embodiment, when the wobble signal S1 acquired based on the wobbling of the information track 2 is input to the filter circuit 44, the phase difference detection for detecting the phase difference a between the signals before and after the HPF 46 + LPF 47 path at that time And a phase difference detector (phase difference detection means) 65b for detecting the phase difference b of the signal before and after the input / output of the BPF 45 path, and a phase difference detector 65a, 65b. Based on the detection result, the delay time dlyclock of the delay circuit 50 as the adjusting means provided in the subsequent stage of the PLL circuit 49 is adjusted so that the phases of both paths coincide with each other.

  FIG. 13 is a waveform showing the relationship between the phase of the wobble signal S1 before filtering, the phase of the analog wobble signal S2 that has passed through the LPF 47, and the phase of the digital wobble signal S3 that has passed through the BPF 45 (before digitization by the binarization circuit 48). FIG. In the HPF46 + LPF47 path, the phase of the analog wobble signal S2 is delayed by a. In the BPF45 path, the phase of the digital wobble signal S3 is delayed by b. Then, before a sin wave digital wobble signal is generated by the sin wave generating circuit 51, a phase delay corresponding to c can be provided by the delay time dlyclock set in the delay circuit 50 (see FIG. 7 and the like). Here, at the time of ADIP demodulation, since the sin wave = S6 and the analog wobble signal S2 are multiplied by the multiplier 53, the higher the amplitude after multiplication, the more the ADIP information can be demodulated. For that purpose, it is necessary that the phase relationship between the sin wave and the analog wobble signal is the same phase.

Therefore,
a = b + c
When the above holds, the phase relationship between the analog wobble signal and the digital wobble signal becomes the same phase, and the most accurate ADIP demodulation is possible. Therefore, based on the detection results of the phase comparators 65a and 65b,
c = a−b
Thus, the delay time dlyclock of the delay circuit 50 may be adjusted.

  As described above, according to the present embodiment, in the optical disc apparatus 10, the path between the HPF 46 and the LPF 47 when the wobble signal S1 acquired based on the wobbling of the information track 2 of the optical disc 1 is input to the filter circuit 44. The phase difference between the signals before and after the input and output and the phase difference between the paths of the BPF 45 are detected by the phase comparators 65a and 65b, respectively, and the delay circuit 50 delays so that the phases of both paths become the same phase based on the detected phase difference. ADIP demodulation can be optimally performed by adjusting the time dlyclock, so that ADIP information can be demodulated in an optimal state.

  In particular, by performing these detection / adjustment operations at fixed timings, it is possible to always demodulate ADIP information in an optimum state without being affected by sudden power supply voltage fluctuations or temperature changes. In addition, since the playback speed changes at the time of playback in the CAV (constant angular velocity) system, the frequency of the wobble signal naturally changes and the optimum adjustment value also changes, but the transition from the playback in the CAV system to the recording operation. Sometimes, by performing these detection / adjustment operations, the ADIP information can be demodulated in an optimum state.

  In this embodiment, the phase difference between the signals before and after the input / output of each path of the filter circuit 44 is directly detected by the phase comparators 65a and 65b. However, as another embodiment, For example, as shown in FIG. 14, the amplitude ratio a ′ of the signals before and after the input / output of the HPF 46 + LPF 47 path when the wobble signal S1 based on the information track 2 is input (= HPF 46 + LPF 47 path output amplitude / HPF 46 + LPF 47 path input amplitude) ) Is detected by an amplitude comparator (amplitude ratio detecting means) 66a, and a phase difference (phase delay) a is detected by a phase difference detector (phase difference detecting means) 67a based on this amplitude ratio a ', while the BPF 45 path The amplitude ratio b '(= output amplitude of BPF45 path / input amplitude of BPF45 path) is an amplitude comparator (amplitude ratio detecting means). 6b, based on this amplitude ratio b ', a phase difference detector (phase difference detection means) 67b detects a phase difference (phase lag) b, and a = b + c based on these phase differences a and b. As described above, the delay time timeset of the delay circuit 64 may be adjusted. In this case, the filter characteristics of the LPF 47 and the BPF 45 are measured in advance, the relationship between the amplitude ratio and the phase delay corresponding to the filter characteristics is written in the control program, and this relationship is used in the phase difference detectors 67a and 67b. Thus, the phase differences a and b may be obtained from the amplitude ratios a ′ and b ′.

  When the phase delay due to the BPF 45 is b, in FIG. 7 and the like, an example in which the phase delay a on the LPF 47 side is larger than the phase delay b is shown, but not limited thereto, the BPF 45, HPF 46, and LPF 47 Depending on the characteristics, the reverse, that is, the phase delay b may be larger than the phase delay a. In such a case, it is only necessary to shift the phase of the digital wobble signal S4 by a phase delay where c = b−a (that is, a phase advance in this case).

  In the present embodiment, the output signal of the BPF 45 is delayed by the delay circuit 50. However, instead of or in addition to such a configuration, the output signal of the LPF 47 is used as a phase adjustment circuit. The phase may be adjusted by inputting. Alternatively, the phase difference between the output signal of the LPF 47 and the output signal of the BPF 45 may be directly obtained, and the delay time dlyclock of the delay circuit 50 may be adjusted by this phase difference.
