【0001】
【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は記録媒体のトラック構造に関し、特にテストトラックのトラックピッチをデータ記録トラックのトラックピッチよりも狭くした記録媒体及びこれを記録再生する記録再生装置に関する。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
従来、記録媒体(例えば光磁気ディスク)を用いた記録再生装置では、予めディスク内のテスト領域(あるいはテストトラック)と呼ばれる領域に所定のテストデータを記録・再生し、記録・再生時の最適なレーザパワーを決定していた。具体的には、再生時のレーザパワー(以下、再生レーザパワー)を一定とした状態で、記録時のレーザパワー(以下、記録レーザパワー)を段階的に増大させ、各記録レーザパワーで記録した時のデータを再生してそのビットエラーレート(以下、BER)を測定すると、図7に示す実線のように鍋底状に変化する。
【0003】
そこで、例えばE1、E2、E3、E4の4点の記録レーザパワーにおいてBERを測定し、これを図中点線で示す2次曲線で近似して、BERが最低となるときの記録レーザパワーの最適値Pmを決定することができる。ここで、2次曲線で近似して求めた記録レーザパワーの最適値Pmは、前記図7において実線で示したグラフの鍋底の中心付近になることが望ましい。
【0004】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
然し乍ら、前記E1、E2、E3、E4の4点の記録レーザパワーが図8に示すようにずれていた場合、近似曲線は同図において点線で示したようになり、よって求められた記録レーザパワーの最適値Pnは、実線で示したグラフの鍋底の中心よりずれてしまうことになる。そして、ディスク内において多少の特性変化が存在する場合は、前述のように求められた記録レーザパワーが適切でなくなり、場所によってはBERが増大して安定した記録・再生が行えなくなる恐れがあった。
【0005】
尚、記録レーザパワーを上記のようなE1〜E4の4点よりも多くして広範囲に記録・再生テストを行ってBERを測定し、これに基づいて記録レーザパワーの最適値を求めることも考えられるが、これでは記録レーザパワーの最適値を求めるのに多くの時間がかかってしまう。
そこで、本発明は、短時間で、且つ適切な記録レーザパワーの最適値を求めることができる記録媒体及びこれを記録再生する記録再生装置を提供することを目的とする。
【0007】
【課題を解決するための手段】
上記の課題を解決するため本発明では、螺旋または同心円状のトラックを有すると共にデータを記録・再生するためのデータ領域及びデータの記録・再生のテストを行うためのテスト領域とを有し、前記テスト領域のトラックピッチを前記データ領域のトラックピッチよりも狭くした狭トラックピッチのテスト領域を有する記録媒体の記録再生装置であって、前記狭トラックピッチのテスト領域において記録を行って求めた最適な記録レーザパワーに基づいて前記データ領域における最適な記録レーザパワーを求める最適記録レーザパワー設定手段を備えたことを特徴とする。
【0008】
また、本発明の記録再生装置において、前記最適記録レーザパワー設定手段は、前記狭トラックピッチのテスト領域において記録を行って求めた最適な記録レーザパワーの値に次式で求められる補正係数nを乗じて前記データ領域における最適な記録レーザパワーを求めることを特徴とする。
【0009】

【0010】
【発明の実施の形態】
以下、図面を参照しつつ本発明の一実施形態について詳述する。
先ず、図1は本発明の光磁気ディスクの要部側断面図である。同図に示すように、光磁気ディスク1にはレーザ光入射側とは反対側にランドLとグルーブGによってトラックが形成されている。そしてそのトラックピッチ(TP)は同図に示す距離tの1/2である(即ち、TP=t/2)。
【0011】
また、光磁気ディスク1は、図2に示すように、ポリカーボネートから成る基板11の上に、SiNから成る下地層12、GdFeCoから成る再生層13、GdFeAlから成るマスク層14、SiNから成る中間層15、TbFeCoから成る記録層16、SiNから成る誘電体層17、Alから成る放熱層18が形成されているが、この膜構造に限定されるものではない。
【0012】
さらに、図3に示すように、光磁気ディスクには、リードイン領域21、データ記録領域22、テスト領域23、リードアウト領域24が設けられている。この例では、データ記録領域22よりも内周側にテスト領域23が設けられている。そして、前記テスト領域23のトラックピッチは、データ記録領域22のトラックピッチよりも狭くなっている。この狭トラックピッチのテスト領域22は、ディスクの内周側に設ければディスクのチルトの影響を受けにくくなり、また、線速度一定で記録・再生を行うディスクでは、テスト領域に使うトラックの容量を少なくすることができるのでデータ領域の容量を増やすことができる。ただし、テスト領域22は同図の場所・数に限られず、ディスク内の複数箇所に設ければシーク時間を短縮することができる。
【0013】
テスト領域22のトラックピッチを狭くした場合、BER特性は図4の実線のような鍋底状にはならず、点線のように2次曲線に近い形となる。このため、テスト領域22においてE1、E2、E3、E4の4点の記録レーザパワーでテストデータを記録し、これを一定の再生レーザパワーでそれぞれ再生してBERを測定した場合、点線で示す近似曲線と実線で示す曲線とが略一致し、適切な記録レーザパワーの最適値Pm’を求めることができる。
【0014】
また、テスト領域22のトラックピッチを狭くしたことによってBER特性が実線Bのように2次曲線に近い形となると、前述のようなE1〜E4の4点でなく、3点であっても適切な記録レーザパワーの最適値を求めることが可能となり、記録レーザパワーの最適値を求めるのに要する時間を短縮することができる。
次に、図5はテスト領域22のトラックピッチ(TP)を狭くしていった場合の各BER特性を示している。同図に示すように、トラックピッチが0.6μmの時は鍋底状の特性であっても、トラックピッチが0.55μmになるとこれが2次曲線に近くなり、記録レーザパワーも少し低レーザパワー側にシフトすることがわかる。さらにトラックピッチが狭くなるとBERが上昇し、記録レーザパワーの最適値も低下するようになる。例えば、データ領域のトラックピッチを0.6μm、テスト領域のトラックピッチを0.5μmとすると、テスト領域で求めた記録レーザパワーの最適値とデータ領域における実際の最適な記録レーザパワーとがずれ、実際にデータ領域に最適な記録レーザパワーよりも小さい記録レーザパワーの最適値が求められることになる。然し乍ら、予めテスト領域とデータ領域のトラックピッチの差が判っていればこれを校正することは可能であり、以下、これについて詳述する。
【0015】
図6は本発明の光磁気ディスクを記録・再生するための記録再生装置の概略構成を示すブロック図である。
同図において、31はディスクを回転させるスピンドルモータ、32はスピンドル駆動回路、33は光ピックアップ、34はレーザ光駆動回路、35はスレッド駆動回路、36はサーボ回路、37はRF増幅回路、38はPLLおよびエンコード/デコード回路、39は入出力インタフェース回路、40はシステム制御回路である。
【0016】
システム制御回路40内のメモリ領域(図示せず)には、テスト領域のトラックピッチを0.55μm、データ領域のトラックピッチを0.6μmであるとすると、各トラックピッチにおける最適な記録レーザーパワーの標準値に基づいて次式で求められた補正係数nが予め格納されている。
【0017】
【数3】
Figure 0004623861
【0018】
ここで、各記録レーザーパワーP,Pの標準値は、一例としては複数の光磁気ディスクを用いて実際に記録テストを行って統計的に求めることが考えられる。
よって、記録再生装置に実際に装着されている光磁気ディスクに対する最適なレーザパワーを求めるには、上述のように、実際に光磁気ディスクのテスト領域で記録レーザパワーの最適値Pmを求め、これに前記補正係数nを乗じてやれば、データ領域における最適な記録レーザパワーを近似することができる。
【0019】
尚、上記の如き最適な記録レーザパワーを近似する処理については、システム制御回路40内のソフトウエアで実現されている。
また、前記記録再生装置の通常の記録及び再生時の動作については、一般的な光磁気ディスク記録再生装置と同様であるのでその詳細な説明は割愛する。
さらに、上記の説明では、光磁気ディスク及びその記録再生を例に説明したが、これに限らず、相変化型ディスク等、他の記録媒体及びその記録再生装置にも適用できることは言うまでも無い。
【0021】
【発明の効果】
以上、詳述した如く本発明に依れば、螺旋または同心円状のトラックを有すると共にデータを記録・再生するためのデータ領域及びデータの記録・再生のテストを行うためのテスト領域とを有し、前記テスト領域のトラックピッチを前記データ領域のトラックピッチよりも狭くした狭トラックピッチのテスト領域を有する記録媒体の記録再生装置において、前記狭トラックピッチのテスト領域において記録・再生を行って求めた最適な記録レーザパワーに基づいて前記データ領域における最適な記録レーザパワーを求める最適記録レーザパワー設定手段を備えた記録再生装置としたので、短時間で且つ正確な記録レーザパワーの最適値を求めることができる。

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a track structure of a recording medium, and more particularly to a recording medium in which a track pitch of a test track is narrower than a track pitch of a data recording track and a recording / reproducing apparatus for recording / reproducing the recording medium.
[0002]
[Prior art]
Conventionally, in a recording / reproducing apparatus using a recording medium (for example, a magneto-optical disk), predetermined test data is recorded / reproduced in an area called a test area (or test track) in the disk in advance, and optimum recording / reproduction is performed. The laser power was determined. Specifically, with the laser power during reproduction (hereinafter referred to as “reproduction laser power”) being constant, the laser power during recording (hereinafter referred to as “recording laser power”) was increased stepwise and recording was performed at each recording laser power. When the time data is reproduced and its bit error rate (hereinafter referred to as BER) is measured, it changes into a pan bottom as shown by the solid line in FIG.
[0003]
Therefore, for example, the BER is measured at four recording laser powers E1, E2, E3, and E4, and this is approximated by a quadratic curve indicated by a dotted line in the figure, and the optimum recording laser power when the BER is the lowest. The value Pm can be determined. Here, it is desirable that the optimum value Pm of the recording laser power obtained by approximating with a quadratic curve be near the center of the pan bottom of the graph shown by the solid line in FIG.
[0004]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
However, when the recording laser powers at the four points E1, E2, E3, and E4 are shifted as shown in FIG. 8, the approximate curve becomes as shown by the dotted line in FIG. The optimum value Pn of will deviate from the center of the bottom of the pan shown in the solid line. If there is some characteristic change in the disk, the recording laser power obtained as described above is not appropriate, and depending on the location, the BER may increase and stable recording / reproduction may not be performed. .
[0005]
It is also possible to increase the recording laser power from the four points E1 to E4 as described above, perform a recording / reproducing test over a wide range, measure the BER, and obtain the optimum value of the recording laser power based on this. However, this requires a lot of time to obtain the optimum value of the recording laser power.
Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide a recording medium capable of obtaining an optimum value of an appropriate recording laser power in a short time and a recording / reproducing apparatus for recording / reproducing the same.
[0007]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
In order to solve the above problems, the present invention has a spiral or concentric track and a data area for recording / reproducing data and a test area for testing recording / reproducing data, A recording / reproducing apparatus having a test area with a narrow track pitch in which a track pitch in a test area is narrower than a track pitch in the data area, and an optimum value obtained by performing recording in the test area with the narrow track pitch An optimum recording laser power setting means for obtaining an optimum recording laser power in the data area based on the recording laser power is provided.
[0008]
In the recording / reproducing apparatus of the present invention, the optimum recording laser power setting means adds a correction coefficient n obtained by the following equation to the optimum recording laser power value obtained by performing recording in the test area of the narrow track pitch. The optimum recording laser power in the data area is obtained by multiplication.
[0009]
[Expression 2]

[0010]
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.
First, FIG. 1 is a sectional side view of a main part of a magneto-optical disk of the present invention. As shown in the figure, tracks are formed on the magneto-optical disk 1 by lands L and grooves G on the side opposite to the laser beam incident side. The track pitch (TP) is ½ of the distance t shown in the figure (ie, TP = t / 2).
[0011]
As shown in FIG. 2, the magneto-optical disk 1 includes a substrate 11 made of polycarbonate, an underlayer 12 made of SiN, a reproduction layer 13 made of GdFeCo, a mask layer 14 made of GdFeAl, and an intermediate layer made of SiN. 15, a recording layer 16 made of TbFeCo, a dielectric layer 17 made of SiN, and a heat dissipation layer 18 made of Al are formed, but the film structure is not limited to this.
[0012]
Further, as shown in FIG. 3, the magneto-optical disk is provided with a lead-in area 21, a data recording area 22, a test area 23, and a lead-out area 24. In this example, a test area 23 is provided on the inner peripheral side of the data recording area 22. The track pitch of the test area 23 is narrower than the track pitch of the data recording area 22. If the test area 22 having a narrow track pitch is provided on the inner circumference side of the disk, it is less affected by the tilt of the disk. In addition, the capacity of the track used for the test area in a disk that records and reproduces at a constant linear velocity. Therefore, the capacity of the data area can be increased. However, the test area 22 is not limited to the location and number in the figure, and seek time can be shortened if it is provided at a plurality of locations in the disk.
[0013]
When the track pitch of the test area 22 is narrowed, the BER characteristic does not have a pan-bottom shape as shown by the solid line in FIG. 4, but has a shape close to a quadratic curve as shown by a dotted line. Therefore, when test data is recorded with four recording laser powers E1, E2, E3, and E4 in the test area 22, and each is reproduced with a constant reproduction laser power and the BER is measured, the approximation indicated by the dotted line The curve and the curve indicated by the solid line substantially match, and an appropriate optimum value Pm ′ of the recording laser power can be obtained.
[0014]
Further, if the BER characteristic becomes a shape close to a quadratic curve as shown by the solid line B by narrowing the track pitch of the test area 22, even if there are three points instead of the four points E1 to E4 as described above, it is appropriate. Thus, it is possible to obtain an optimum value of the recording laser power, and it is possible to shorten the time required to obtain the optimum value of the recording laser power.
Next, FIG. 5 shows each BER characteristic when the track pitch (TP) of the test area 22 is narrowed. As shown in the figure, even when the track pitch is 0.6 μm, even if it has a pan-bottom characteristic, when the track pitch becomes 0.55 μm, this becomes close to a quadratic curve, and the recording laser power is slightly lower on the laser power side. It turns out to shift to. Further, as the track pitch becomes narrower, the BER increases and the optimum value of the recording laser power also decreases. For example, if the track pitch of the data area is 0.6 μm and the track pitch of the test area is 0.5 μm, the optimum value of the recording laser power obtained in the test area and the actual optimum recording laser power in the data area are shifted, Actually, an optimum value of the recording laser power smaller than the optimum recording laser power for the data area is obtained. However, if the difference between the track pitches of the test area and the data area is known in advance, it can be calibrated. This will be described in detail below.
[0015]
FIG. 6 is a block diagram showing a schematic configuration of a recording / reproducing apparatus for recording / reproducing the magneto-optical disk of the present invention.
In the figure, 31 is a spindle motor that rotates a disk, 32 is a spindle drive circuit, 33 is an optical pickup, 34 is a laser light drive circuit, 35 is a thread drive circuit, 36 is a servo circuit, 37 is an RF amplifier circuit, and 38 is A PLL and encode / decode circuit, 39 is an input / output interface circuit, and 40 is a system control circuit.
[0016]
In a memory area (not shown) in the system control circuit 40, it is assumed that the test area track pitch is 0.55 μm and the data area track pitch is 0.6 μm. A correction coefficient n obtained by the following equation based on the standard value is stored in advance.
[0017]
[Equation 3]
Figure 0004623861
[0018]
Here, as an example, the standard values of the recording laser powers P T and P D may be statistically obtained by actually performing a recording test using a plurality of magneto-optical disks.
Therefore, in order to obtain the optimum laser power for the magneto-optical disk actually mounted on the recording / reproducing apparatus, as described above, the optimum value Pm of the recording laser power is actually obtained in the test area of the magneto-optical disk. Is multiplied by the correction coefficient n, the optimum recording laser power in the data area can be approximated.
[0019]
The processing for approximating the optimum recording laser power as described above is realized by software in the system control circuit 40.
Further, the normal recording and reproducing operations of the recording / reproducing apparatus are the same as those of a general magneto-optical disk recording / reproducing apparatus, and therefore detailed description thereof is omitted.
Furthermore, in the above description, the magneto-optical disk and the recording / reproducing thereof have been described as an example. .
[0021]
【The invention's effect】
As described above, according to the present invention, the present invention has spiral or concentric tracks, a data area for recording / reproducing data, and a test area for testing data recording / reproduction. In a recording / reproducing apparatus for a recording medium having a narrow track pitch test area in which the track pitch of the test area is narrower than the track pitch of the data area, recording / reproduction was performed in the narrow track pitch test area. Since the recording / reproducing apparatus is provided with the optimum recording laser power setting means for obtaining the optimum recording laser power in the data area based on the optimum recording laser power, the optimum value of the recording laser power can be obtained accurately in a short time. Can do.
