Claims6
An information recording medium comprising:
- a first servo layer, a second servo layer, and a data layer, the information recording medium further comprising:
- a first spiral track and a second spiral track formed between the first servo layer and the second servo layer and spiraling in opposite directions.
An information recording medium comprising:
- a servo layer;
- and
- a data layer,
- wherein the servo layer comprises a spiral track formed of a groove, and address information is recorded in the groove by wobble modulation and width modulation.
An information recording medium comprising:
- a servo layer comprising a first spiral track with a first pit row area and a first non-pit-row area alternately formed therein and a second spiral track with a second pit row area and a second non-pit-row area alternately formed at positions staggered and shifted from the first pit row area and the first non-pit-row area in a track direction;
- and
- a data layer.
An information recording apparatus configured to record information in an information recording medium including a first servo layer, a second servo layer, and a plurality of data layers with serial numbers and further comprising a first spiral track and a second spiral track formed between the first servo layer and the second servo layer and spiraling in opposite directions, the information recording apparatus comprising:
- tracking control module configured to perform either first tracking control for the first spiral track in the first servo layer or second tracking control for the second spiral track in the second servo layer;
- and
- control module configured to record information in the plurality of data layers under the first tracking control or the second tracking control.
An information recording apparatus configured to record information in an information recording medium including a first servo layer, a second servo layer, and a plurality of data layers with serial numbers and further comprising a first spiral track and a second spiral track formed between the first servo layer and the second servo layer and spiraling in opposite directions, the information recording apparatus by comprising:
- tracking control module configured to perform tracking control on the data layer;
- and
- reproduction module configured to reproduce information from the data layer under the tracking control.
