Normally, in a PLL circuit that generates phase synchronization information from only the reproduced RF signal, the disk eccentricity is compressed, so that the loop characteristics are set so that the gain is greater than or equal to A1 with respect to the eccentric frequency fa. By moving the loop band to the high frequency side, the compression ratio against eccentricity increases. If this happens, the noise band passing through the PLL will increase, and the accuracy of the synchronous clock will be degraded in the form of clock jitter.
  • FIG. 5 shows the phase error on a time axis in a typical PLL. As is clear from Fig. 5, the force that can compress fluctuations due to eccentricity at high gains, the compression effect decreases at low gains.

  • the wobble signal after information recording is subject to the interference of the reproduced RF signal, and its SNR is very low. Therefore, even with such a wobble signal power, it is difficult to match the phase even if the reproduction channel clock is generated, and an error of about several channel clocks is included with respect to the channel clock. This maximum deviation is the channel clock. In that case, the output of the phase comparator 155 must output a phase error of 2 ⁇ even if the RF synchronization clock is correctly synchronized to the RF signal. Ordinary playback RF signals often contain many frequency components and have a low SNR. It is difficult to stably and accurately generate phase error information of 2 ⁇ or more from such a signal even if a phase frequency comparator is used. Therefore, the technique disclosed in Patent Document 2 is effective only when the phase difference between the wobble signal and the RF signal is sufficiently small, and is difficult to apply in an actual optical disc apparatus.

  • DVD-RW like DVD + RZRW, has only a phase-modulated wobble signal and no preamble header, but requires random access similar to DVD-RAM. In other words, it is necessary to correctly play back the recorded portion that follows the unrecorded portion.
  • DVD-R In AM in addition to the VFO area at the beginning of the recording part, there is a VFO area in the prepit header immediately before the recording part VFO.
  • DVD-RW only has 71B VFO area at the beginning of the recording part. For this reason, if the frequency is greatly shifted, even the frequency pull-in may not be possible. In addition, because phase error information is low SNR, PLL phase synchronization in a shorter time than DVD-RAM with pre-pits is a major issue. In CAV operation, the channel frequency changes from 100% to 240% on the inner and outer circumferences, making it more difficult to play back the first block.

  • either a method of presetting frequency values at regular intervals or a method of always counting as a frequency offset may be employed. Since the detection signal corresponding to the frequency includes an error of about several channel clocks, the reproduced RF signal is used to correct this.

Abstract

Le problème à résoudre dans le cadre de la présente invention est de créer un appareil à disque optique, dans lequel, même lorsque des fréquences de canaux sont commutées en raison d'une recherche ou même lorsqu'une zone non écrite se trouve juste en amont, une zone d'enregistrement de données, dans laquelle des données ont été enregistrées à des densités élevées, peut être lue sans erreurs à partir de l'avant de cette même zone d'enregistrement de données. Ce problème est résolu au moyen d'un démodulateur FM (6 de la Fig. 1) qui détecte en continu la fréquence d'un deuxième signal pour acquérir des informations de fréquence (Fwbl), et au moyen d'un signal qui est obtenu par addition d'un signal de sortie (ΔF) d'un filtre à boucle (52 de la Fig. 1) aux informations de fréquence (Fwbl) et qui est utilisé comme signal d'entrée de commande d'un oscillateur local (53 de la Fig. 1) dans une boucle à verrouillage de phase (5 de la Fig. 1) recevant un premier signal en tant que signal d'entrée. Une synchronisation de phase rapide peut être obtenue au moyen du deuxième signal, dont les informations de fréquence peuvent toujours être acquises, pour commander la fréquence centrale de l'oscillateur local (53 de la Fig. 1).
