Disc-shaped information recording medium including alternating lands and grooves on which information is recorded

Abstract

A disc-shaped information recording medium in which the recording density can be increased to secure a large storage capacity and in which there is no risk of an address section being mistakenly detected by cross-talk from a neighboring track, is disclosed. Specifically, an optical disc of a continuous servo system in which tracking is controlled using a pre-groove and in which information is recorded and/or reproduced with constant angular velocity using clocks of a sole frequency, is disclosed. On the disc is formed a spiral track made up of a data portion for recording data and an address section for recording management information for recording/reproducing data. Both a groove and a land are used as a recording/reproducing track. Odd tracks are formed on the land, while even tracks are formed on the groove.
