Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an optical disk device capable of ensuring signal quality by accurately discriminating an optical disk causing spherical aberration without requiring any mechanisms having a spherical aberration correction section. SOLUTION: The optical disk device can read data from any of multiple types of optical disks, of which the information recording layers are located at mutually different depths under their surface. When the device is loaded with an optical disk, the servo controller of the optical disk device changes a first drive signal to adjust a focus position by changing distances from a lens to the optical disk and/or a second drive signal to adjust tilt of the lens by changing the angles defined of the lens with respect to the optical disk, thereby changing settings to be determined by a combination of the focus position and the tilt. A signal quality measurement section measures multiple index values to rate the quality of a reflected light signal as the settings are changed. Then, the optical disk device identifies the type of the loaded optical disk based on the plurality of index values and reads data from the identified optical disk. COPYRIGHT: (C)2009,JPO&INPIT

Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an optical disk drive and optical disk reproducing method to stably perform read operation even on a slim disk with significant axial runout, in an optical disk for reading information. SOLUTION: The optical disk drive determines that the mounted optical disk is a slim disk, when a discrimination result of disk size by elapsed time until the optical disk reaches a predetermined number of revolutions and a discrimination result of disk size by a signal read from the optical disk are different and restricts the number of revolutions of the optical disk more than the predetermined number of revolutions in step 207 in order to suppress the influence of axial runout.
