TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to the field of optical recording / reproducing, and more particularly, to a PID addressing method using a wobble signal, a detection method thereof, a wobble address encoding circuit, a detection circuit thereof, and a recording medium in a high density optical recording / reproducing system.

In an optical recording / reproducing system, information recorded for physical location recognition for determining a location on a disc to be recorded is called PID (Physical Identification Data). In general, PID is a recording / reproducing medium that is recorded in sector units. This corresponds to the address information of the physical sector. This is essential information for recording data at any location on the disc and finding that location.

In other words, PID refers to address information that enables a particular sector to be found in order to record / reproduce data at an arbitrary position in a disk capable of recording / reproducing, and at the time of making a disk regardless of the presence or absence of user data. Refers to address information of a sector pre-mastered. Therefore, in order to find the position of the sector to be recorded / reproduced accurately and quickly, it must be resistant to errors and have a structure that can be detected structurally as soon as possible.

There are many ways to write PID on disk, but there are two ways. The first is a method of recording physical location information that creates embossed pits of the same shape as read-only optical discs on the disc and uses them to determine specific locations on the disc. There is a method of using a wobble signal that can be obtained by giving a change of a recording track at regular intervals.

The area provided for the purpose of PID addressing by means of the former method, that is, the uneven prepit is called a header field as shown in Fig. 1, and a 2.6 GB (Giga Bytes) DVD- According to the Digital Versatile Disc Random Access Memory (RAM) specification (DVD specification for Rewritable Disc (DVD-RAM) Version 1.0) or 4.7 GB of DVD-RAM, the pre-pit configuration is required when manufacturing the board. Physical location information is input to a position called a header section. The header part includes a variable frequency oscillator (VFO) area for a phase locked loop (PLL), a physical identification data area (PID) assigned a sector number, an ID error detection (IDE) area for storing ID error detection information, and a header part. It consists of a PA (postamble) area and the like for adjusting the initial state for the modulation of the data that is subsequently recorded. The method of properly arranging the header portion composed of such uneven prepits at the head of the sector so that the pickup can easily go to a desired position using this information is called a PID addressing method using prepits. The sector number, sector type, land track / groove track distinction, and the like can be recognized, and servo control can be performed.

In the conventional PID addressing method using the uneven prepits, since the data cannot be recorded in the pit-formed area, there is a problem that the recording density decreases by the pit area formed.

Therefore, the recordable area (user data area) must be increased by minimizing the track pitch (overhead) as well as reducing the track pitch in order to store high density, large capacity data. For this purpose, it is effective to use a wobble signal.

In the case of the recording disk, groove-shaped grooves are formed along the recording track on the substrate so that the track to be recorded can be accurately picked up even when the substrate is not formed when the substrate is formed. The formed part is called a groove, and the other part is called a land, and it is divided into a method of recording only one land or groove according to the recording method, and a method of recording data on both land and groove. It is advantageous to use a land / groove recording method for recording data.

In addition, a method of generating a signal of a specific frequency by changing both walls of the groove as an auxiliary clock means during recording. Such a signal is called a wobble signal. A wobble signal having a single frequency is also recorded on the board of the DVD-RAM disk.

In the PID addressing method using a wobble signal, additional information such as a PID signal can be recorded by adding a special change such as changing a phase or a frequency at a predetermined period when writing a wobble signal having a simple single frequency. In this case, the PID signal recorded superimposed on the wobble signal is generally called a wobble address.

Since the PID addressing method using the wobble signal uses a change in both walls of the groove track to record the wobble, as shown in FIG. 2, the PID addressing method can be used only in a land recording disc that does not record information in the groove track. . That is, in the case of using the change of both walls of the groove track, the land track between the two groove tracks is mixed with the address information of the two groove tracks corresponding to the boundary of both sides forming the land track, so that appropriate information cannot be obtained. As a result, the wobble address formed on the groove track cannot represent both the land track and the groove track address. Therefore, the land track and the groove track are difficult to use in a land / groove recording disc that records information. there was.

In other words, although the position where the wobble address is recorded is the groove side wall surface of the boundary position of the land track and the groove track, in the land / groove recording method in which information is recorded in both the land track and the groove track, both wall surfaces of the land track and the groove track are recorded. Since the information on the wobble formed at the same time is read at the same time, the wobble addressing method shown in FIG. 2 has a problem in that the PID signal cannot be properly recorded and detected.

As a method for solving this problem, as shown in FIG. 3, a method of recording a wobble address only on one wall of the groove track has been proposed. However, this wobble addressing method not only reduces the signal size because the wobble signal is generated on one side wall of the groove track, but also reads the same signal from adjacent land tracks and groove tracks. There is a problem that more information is needed to accurately determine whether or not it is a track.

Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide a novel PID addressing method using a wobble to solve the overhead problem of the uneven prepit addressing method and to solve a problem that is difficult to apply to the land / groove recording method of the wobble addressing method. There is.

Another object of the present invention is to provide a method for addressing PID by time division multiplexing a wobble signal of a simple carrier and phase-modulated address information for each of the two side walls of one track of a groove or a land track using two beams. have.

It is still another object of the present invention to provide a method for detecting address information from a wobble signal of a simple carrier recorded with time-division multiplexing and phase-modulated address information for each of both wall surfaces of one track of a groove or land track. .

DETAILED DESCRIPTION Hereinafter, a PID addressing method using a wobble signal, a detection method thereof, a wobble address encoding circuit, a detection circuit thereof, and a recording medium according to the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

When a wobble address constructed using both wall surfaces of the groove track is read from the land track, signals from two adjacent wall surfaces of the groove are synthesized because signals are read from each of the groove tracks on both sides. In order to process the synthesized signal without interference of the wobble signal between adjacent tracks, the present invention proposes a PID addressing structure using a wobble as shown in FIG.

4 is a diagram illustrating a PID addressing structure using a wobble capable of independently recording an address on each land and groove track according to the present invention. The present invention provides a disk for separately accessing a physical position on a land / groove. As a disc using a land / groove recording method, for example, a structure is applied when angular velocities between adjacent tracks are constant, such as ZCLV (Zoned Constant Linear Velocity) or CAV (Constant Angular Velocity). Since the walls have different shapes, it is preferable to use two-beams for mastering.

위상을 가진 워블 신호를 기록하고, "1b"일 때는 180

의 반대 위상을 가진 워블 신호를 기록한다. In the land and groove tracks, the section in which only wobble carriers are formed and the section in which phase-modulated address information is formed are repeatedly arranged, that is, address data is arranged by multiplexing (time division multiplexing) the time axis. Here, phase modulation uses phase shift keying (PSK) modulation, and zero when the address data bit is "0b".

Record wobble signal with phase, 180 for "1b"

Record the wobble signal with the opposite phase of.

Further, the positions containing the address data of the land track and the groove track are arranged to be offset from each other. The land address and groove address are multiplexed into 1 bit or a predetermined size so that the order in which the land address and the groove address intersect is always constant, but the land size is large in the land track, or vice versa. It may be possible to determine whether it is a land track or a groove track through a method of multiplexing the address and the wobble carrier so as to be smaller.

In other words, the relationship between the groove address and the land address depends on which one is multiplexed first. For example, a groove address always comes first, followed by a land address, and when address information indicating a sector number is sequentially assigned and recorded from the inside of the disc, groove addresses are provided on the outer circumferential side with respect to both wall surfaces of the groove track. When the land addresses are recorded on the inner circumferential side, the groove address (sector number) has a large value in the groove track and the land address (sector number) has a large value in the land track. On the contrary, when the land address is recorded on the outer circumference and the groove address is recorded on the inner circumference, the land address has a large value in the groove track and the groove address has a large value in the land track.

In the case of manufacturing a substrate, a groove is formed using a laser beam at a groove forming area, wherein the wobble signal is formed by displacing the laser beam by the magnitude of the wobble signal in a direction perpendicular to the tracking direction. . Therefore, in the case of using the 1-beam, as shown in the present invention, since the shape of the wall on both sides of the groove cannot be formed with different wobble, the method of recording the change of the wall on both sides using the 2-beam is different. desirable. Another method is to displace a beam whose diameter of one beam is smaller than the track width by the desired track width at right angles to the track direction. However, this method has a difficulty in making the diameter of the beam small enough to narrow the track width for high density recording.

Therefore, in the case of using two beams as shown in Fig. 4, land and groove addresses can be recorded independently, so that land and groove addressing can be performed more accurately, and methods and circuits for detecting addresses for land and groove tracks are described. The advantage is always the same.

위상을 가진 워블 신호가 기록되고, "1b"일 때는 180

위상을 가진 워블 신호가 기록된다.An example of the form of the wobble signal in the land / groove track in the structure shown in FIG. 4 is as shown in FIG. 5, and 0 when the address data is "0b".

Wobble signal with phase is recorded, 180 when "1b"

The wobble signal with phase is recorded.

That is, the wobble signal obtained by phase-modulating the address data is generated by the following equation.

Where T is the sample period of the address data and f is the frequency of the wobble. And a (nT) has a value of address "1" or "-1" in T periods according to each bit value of the address data. The change period T of the address data is larger than the period 1 / f of the wobble signal.

In addition, the wobble signal having only a carrier may be represented as follows.

As shown in Figs. 4 and 5, in the case of arranging addresses by time division multiplexing, when the period of the wobble signal is Tw, the wobble signal in which the address information is phase-modulated by the kTw period with respect to a constant k such that k> 0. And repeatedly recording a wobble signal having only carriers, and the recording order is arranged such that the carrier and address information are displaced with respect to the land track and the groove track so that address data is recorded in the groove track corresponding to the section in which the address data of the land track is recorded. Is not recorded. For example, if the groove track is repeatedly arranged in the order of the wobble carrier and the wobble address information, the land track is repeatedly arranged in the order of the wobble address information and the wobble carrier. Here, kTw is defined as a multiplexing period for multiplexing the wobble and phase modulated address information, and Tw is defined as a period of the wobble clock.

1인 것이 바람직하다. 이는 어드레스 데이터의 주기가 T일 때 신호의 나이퀴스트 대역이 1/(2T)이 되고 따라서 원할한 PSK 변조가 가능하게 하기 위해서는 신호의 대역보다 캐리어의 주파수가 높아야 하기 때문이다. When the PSK modulation is performed using a single frequency wobble signal as a carrier, the period of the address information is preferably at least larger than the period of the wobble signal. That is, the constant is k

It is preferable that it is 1. This is because the Nyquist band of the signal becomes 1 / (2T) when the period of the address data is T, and therefore, the frequency of the carrier must be higher than that of the signal band in order to enable smooth PSK modulation.

In the case of the actual sampled digital data, the spectrum is repeated, so in the case of the address data, low-pass filtering should be performed in the Nyquist band. In this case, a point where the perfect filtering is impossible and the phase of the modulated signal and the modulated signal are synchronized. Considering the fact that synchronous demodulation is possible, it is desirable to set a constant k such that k = 1 or greater so that there is a constant relationship with the carrier frequency. In the illustrated embodiment, k = 1.

In this case, as shown in FIG. 5, both wall surfaces of the land track may be in a positive phase or an inverse phase according to the value of the address data recorded in the adjacent groove track. Similarly, both wall surfaces of the groove track may be recorded in the adjacent land track. Depending on the value of the address data, it may be in a positive phase or an inverse phase. Therefore, when the wobble signals on both wall surfaces are in phase, the wobble signal is detected from the difference signal (called a push-pull signal) of the output signal of the photodetecting element divided into two in the radial direction, and the signals on both wall surfaces are In the case of having the opposite phase, the wobble signal is detected from the sum signal of the output signals of the photodetecting elements divided into two in the radial direction.

Therefore, when the signal detected from the push-pull signal is a phase-modulated address information on a land track, a (nT), and the signal phase-modulated address information on a groove track is b (nT), The sum of these two signals, c (nT), is represented as a signal repeated with each other in a kTw period.

That is, when a (nT) = {a0, a1, a2, ...}, and b (nT) = {b0, b1, b2, ...}, when k = 1, c (nT) = {a0, b0, a1, b1, a2, b2, ...}, the wobble signal of the land track in which the wobble signals of the adjacent groove tracks are mixed or the wobble signal of the groove track in which the wobble signals of the adjacent land tracks are mixed. Can be expressed as:

즉 동위상이 되고, 어드레스 데이터가 "1b"일 때는 180

즉 역위상이 되도록 하기 위해 1 또는 -1의 값을 선택), 실제 워블 신호는 어드레스 데이터가 "0b"인 구간에서는 캐리어와 위상 변조된 워블 신호가 동위상이 되어 푸쉬풀 신호로부터 워블 신호가 검출되고, 어드레스 데이터가 "1b"인 구간에서는 캐리어와 위상 변조된 워블 신호가 역위상이 되어 푸쉬풀 신호로부터 워블 신호가 검출되지 않는다. 그리고 최종 PID에 해당하는 어드레스 데이터는 다중화된 인접한 랜드 어드레스와 그루브 어드레스로부터 역다중화해서 얻어지는 값이 된다.Here, since the value of c (nT) is 1 or -1 (that is, when the address data is "0b", the phase of the wobble signal is 0).

That is, in phase and 180 when address data is "1b"

In other words, select a value of 1 or -1 to make the phase out of phase.In the actual wobble signal, the carrier and phase-modulated wobble signal are in phase in the period where the address data is "0b", and the wobble signal is detected from the push-pull signal. In the period where the address data is "1b", the wobble signal phase-modulated with the carrier becomes out of phase and the wobble signal is not detected from the push-pull signal. The address data corresponding to the final PID is a value obtained by demultiplexing from multiplexed adjacent land addresses and groove addresses.

In the sum signal, the opposite happens. In the section where the address data is "0b", the wobble signal is not detected from the sum signal, and the wobble signal is detected from the sum signal only in the section where the address data is "1b".

On the other hand, it is very important to detect the initial phase of the wobble signal. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 6, it is preferable to record a synchronization signal capable of phase-aligning a mirror zone or a wobble in each sector or a specific unit. This will be described in more detail with reference to FIGS. 8 and 9. In addition, in the case of the CAPA (Complementary Allocated Pit Address) method currently used in the DVD-RAM, the CAPA signal itself and the VFO included in the CAPA signal can be used as the reference phase signal of the wobble signal.

When the wobble address is detected from the land and groove track to which the PID is addressed using the wobble in this manner, the push-pull signal is phase modulated so that the carrier, that is, the wobble clock, can be multiplied to detect the phase component of the original signal (address data). . That is, multiplying the carrier by the phase-modulated signal, the original signal of the DC term (Direct Current Term) and the harmonic components multiplied by two times is generated as shown in the following equation.

이다. 이 2배의 고조파 성분을 저역 통과 필터링한 후 남은 원 신호 성분(위상 성분)을 슬라이서를 통해 이진 데이터(binary data)로 복원하면 된다. 아울러 복원된 신호는 다중화되어 있기 때문에 원하는 어드레스 데이터를 얻기 위해서는 다중화된 랜드와 그루브 어드레스를 역다중화해주어야 한다. here,

to be. After low pass filtering the double harmonic components, the remaining original signal components (phase components) may be restored to binary data through a slicer. In addition, since the recovered signal is multiplexed, the multiplexed land and groove addresses must be demultiplexed in order to obtain desired address data.

In addition, if the period of the address information is synchronized with a simple ratio such as 1: 1 or 1: 2 for the carrier, a synchronization detection method that simply detects the phase of the signal is possible. In other words, the synchronous detection method is a method of extracting a phase of a signal by detecting a magnitude of a signal at a predetermined period without multiplying a carrier by a phase modulated signal and then detecting the signal through a low pass filter. Since the detection method for such a PSK signal is generally known, a detailed description of the principle will be omitted.

Next, the PID structure of the wobble signal using the change of the wall on both sides of the groove according to the present invention will be described in more detail.

Preferably, the address information for one sector is repeated at least three times. Since the PID information is relatively smaller than the ECC (Error Correction Code) block size of general user data, there is a problem that the ECC efficiency is lowered, and the possibility of miscorrection is increased. It is more efficient than increasing the number of bits. On the other hand, an error detection code (EDC) is generally used for error correction of address information.

In the present invention, when the PID information is added to the wobble by using a phase modulation method, the wobble signal has the same period, and as the size of the sector increases, the physical length becomes longer to record the wobble signal of more cycles. This has the advantage of increasing the size of the PID information. On the other hand, if the sector size is too large, the minimum recording unit of data becomes large, which causes inefficiency.

The size of the sector is preferably as large as the size of the ECC block as much as possible. Since the ECC processing unit is the minimum recording unit, when setting a sector in a smaller unit, the data is read after all sectors included in the ECC block including the sector are read / modified or read. The process of recording, such as recording / modifying, updating the ECC information accordingly, and then recording the data, undergoes a complicated process called read modify write after reading.

In addition, the existing 4.7GB (Giga Bytes) DVD-RAM is composed of an ECC block of 32 kilobytes (Kbytes) and a sector of 2 Kbytes. The length of the record field of the sector is composed of 41072 channel bits.

However, in the case of high density recording, it is preferable to make the sector unit larger than 4.7 GB DVD-RAM. If the density becomes higher, the defect size that can be corrected by the ECC processing unit is relatively smaller than that of the existing 4.7 GB DVD-RAM. It is desirable to keep the size of the correctable defect required in the GB DVD-RAM, and therefore the size of the sector is also desirable. The size of the sector can be considered to be 4Kbyte, 8Kbyte or 16Kbyte. If the size of the sector is 4 Kbytes, and the existing additional information is assumed to be maintained, the number of channel bits per sector is 82144 bits.

On the other hand, when the period of the recorded channel data is Ts, the period of the wobble signal is Tw, and the period of the PID data is Tpid, the effects of the change of the period of these signals are as follows.

The period Ts of channel data determines the recording density on the disc. As the period Tw of the wobble signal becomes longer, the frequency of the wobble signal decreases so that the wobble signal approaches or invades the band of the servo signal such as a tracking error signal, and as the period becomes shorter, the frequency of the wobble signal becomes shorter. Becomes high, which causes a problem of approaching or invading the RF signal band in which user data is recorded. Therefore, it is important to determine the band of the appropriate wobble signal. In the present invention, the period Tw of the wobble signal has a range (50 Ts < Tw < 450 Ts) larger than 50 Ts and smaller than 450 Ts. In addition, for 4.7GB DVD-RAM, Tw consists of 186Ts.

Tpid<4Tw)가 바람직하다.The period (Tpid) of the PID data determines the bandwidth of the modulated signal when the PID data is modulated using the wobble carrier. If the period of the PID data is the same as the period Tw of the wobble signal (Tpid = Tw), if the frequency of the wobble signal is fw, the bandwidth of the modulated signal is 2fw, and the period of the PID data is 2 of the period of the wobble signal. In the case of a double (Tpid = 2Tw), the bandwidth of the modulated signal becomes fw and the longer the Tpid, the narrower the bandwidth of the modulated signal, resulting in less interference with surrounding signals. However, the longer the Tpid, the lower the efficiency of the modulated signal, so that the amount of PID data that can be recorded decreases. Therefore, in the case of PID data cycle (Tpid), a range of 1Tw to about 4Tw (1Tw)

Tpid <4Tw) is preferred.

7A to 7C are diagrams illustrating an example of the content of a wobble PID according to the PID addressing structure illustrated in FIG. 4, wherein one PID unit is used to determine a start position of a wobble PID signal as illustrated in FIG. 7A. Wobble sync with synchronization information, PID data (PID) phase-modulated by a wobble carrier with address information and multiplexed with the wobble carrier at a predetermined period, and an error detection code (EDC). For reference, FIG. 4 shows only that multiplexing of 1-bit PID data and a simple wobble carrier is performed.

At least three address data (PID data) are preferably repeated in one sector as shown in FIG. 7B. This is for the three address data to increase the robustness against miscorrection or misdetection. Therefore, a configuration in which the same type of PID unit including an address is repeated three times in one sector period is preferable.

In addition, at the head of the sector, as shown in Fig. 7C, a sector mark indicating the start of a physical sector is disposed, and each sector mark has a track mark having information about a mirror area and a track currently located for one wobble clock period. (Marked TM), it consists of a VFO signal for synchronizing the recording PLL before the start of the sector. Here, the mirror area is an area that does not have any signal or information on the path through which the recording / reproducing beam on the disk passes, and reflects the incident beam with a constant reflectance, and has a refractive effect due to a pit, a recording mark, or a land / groove structure. Since does not occur, the magnitude of the output signal read from the mirror area is maximized.

The wobble PID structure of the present invention detects the start of address information (PID data) before each address information and prevents the phase of the wobble carrier from being prevented from propagating a problem such as a temporary PLL failure or a shift in clock phase to the next address information. It is desirable to have synchronization information that can be detected. In particular, it is preferable that not only the synchronization information can be detected in a state where data is modulated, but also the synchronization information can be detected even after data demodulation. Accordingly, the synchronization information for the address information of the present invention exists in the form of a wobble sync using a Barker Code, which is a kind of pseudo random sequence, and a method of constructing and detecting the Barker code and the synchronization signal. Is disclosed in U.S. Patent No. 5,511,099 filed under the name of "Passband Sync Block Recovery" by the same applicant, and the detailed description thereof will be omitted.

FIG. 8 is a view schematically showing the shape of a sector mark at the head of each sector and the first sector mark of each track in the track structure shown in FIG. 6, which transitions from a groove track to a land track or a land track to a groove track; The first sector mark (referred to as zero sector mark or reference sector mark) located at the beginning of the track, that is, the start point of each track is shown. Sector marks are located not only on groove tracks but also on land tracks, and the structure of sector marks is arranged differently depending on whether it is an odd track or even track, and the first sector mark of the track is different from other sector marks.

Each of these sector marks serves to determine whether the track to be read or written is an excellent track or an odd track, and to determine the starting position of a land or groove track. Of course, after demodulating the address data according to the structure of the present invention, it is possible to distinguish whether the current track is an even track, an odd track, a land track, or a groove track. In other words, if the address is a land track and the wobble carriers are multiplexed so that the land address is larger in size, or conversely, the land address is smaller in size, the correlation between the sizes of the addresses is used to determine whether the land track or groove track is used. Can be determined.

Even if the address information is not normally demodulated and read, when the current track position can be determined to be an excellent track, an odd track, a land, or a groove, it is possible to know whether the address is misread and increase the reading speed. There is this.

The / land 2 address information is as shown in (h) of FIG. 12B, and the multiplexed groove 2 / land 2 address information detected from the groove track is as shown in (i) of FIG. 12B.

On the other hand, if 0 is continuously generated in the data stream in which the track data of the groove is multiplexed, wobble may not be generated from the push-pull signal in the adjacent land track, and thus the PLL may not operate. Accordingly, in order to prevent the input address data from continuously becoming 1 or 0, RLL (Run Length Limited) encoding or the like is performed to prevent 0 or 1 data from being generated continuously, and the PLL operates smoothly. It is preferable to use the wobble detected from the sum signal together.

The present invention can be effectively applied to a high density optical recording / reproducing system.

In addition, in the above embodiment, only the configuration in which the address data is multiplexed in every bit unit has been described, but may be multiplexed in multiple bit units. In the embodiment for this case, only the configuration of the multiplexer and the demultiplexer for restoring it again is different, and other configurations may be implemented in the same configuration.

In the above-described embodiment, the phase data is phase-modulated by using two phase differences of 0 degrees and 180 degrees. However, the phase data may be phase-modulated with address data having a phase difference of 90 degrees and 270 degrees with respect to the wobble carrier. In this case, since the phases do not have a relationship of 0 degrees or 180 degrees between adjacent groove tracks but a relationship of 90 degrees or 270 degrees, the wobble signal does not disappear from the land track. In this case, it is difficult to detect synchronous synchronization. However, since the phenomenon in which the wobble signal disappears continuously does not occur, the effectiveness of the wobble signal can be improved.

In addition, the modulation phase angle may be selected to be smaller than the maximum value of the phase difference (180 degrees) of the two signals, such as 45 degrees and 90 degrees, thereby reducing the change in phase of the wobble signal, thereby reducing the bandwidth. This configuration can solve the problem that the wobble signal is not output when the phase opposite to the adjacent track is continuous. In the case of the problem that the wobble signal is not output, the data signal may be made to use a two-dimensional convolutional code so that a phase in which there is no continuous opposite between the data of adjacent tracks.

In addition, not only one piece of address information is recorded for one area, for example, the address of an adjacent land track may be recorded in the area corresponding to one sector of the groove track. It is also possible to record the address of the adjacent groove track for the land track. In this case, the address of the adjacent track may vary depending on the length of the corresponding sector and the characteristics of the modulated signal. Through this method, a plurality of address information can be read while one sector is read, so that even if any one address information cannot be read, the address information that can be read and the address information that cannot be read from other disk information can be inferred. .

As described above, in the present invention, the phase correlation between adjacent tracks is configured so that a specific relationship can be formed so that the wobble address can be read in any track, and the method and circuit for detecting the wobble address have a simple effect.

The present invention can solve the overhead problem of the conventional PID addressing method by the uneven type prepit, and solve the problem of not being applicable to the land / groove recording method of the conventional wobble address method.

In addition, since the present invention multiplexes and writes a wobble signal having only an address and a carrier which is phase-modulated independently of the land track and the groove track using two-beams, the method of detecting the land and groove addresses is the same, and the multiplexing order. If the land and groove tracks are shifted from each other, and the address sizes are different from the land and groove tracks, the land / groove tracks can be easily determined.
