A JUDGMENT IS MADE OF A REGION TO WHICH A CURRENT REPRODUCTION SCANNING POSITION BELONGS, AND CONTROL IS MADE SO AS TO SWITCH THE PLAYBACK LINEAR VELOCITY IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE REGION THUS DETERMINED. IN PARTICULAR, A DIFFERENCE BETWEEN DISC ROTATION SPEEDS AT THE DISC INNERMOST AND OUTERMOST TRACKS IS MADE SMALLER THAN THAT IN A CASE WHERE THE LINEAR VELOCITY IS NOT CHANGED OVER THE DISC ENTIRE AREAFIGURE 4

Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an optical disk device where a highly precise and exact tracking retraction is enabled. SOLUTION: A DIR signal generating part 8 generates a discriminating signal for discriminating the driving direction of a tracking actuator 3 which moves an incident laser beam on an optical disk 1 in a direction traversing a track in a manner of raising time resolution for directional detection based on a polarity of a mate signal in respective rising and falling positions of a tracking zero cross signal Ftzc and a mirror signal Fm. Only the decelerating polarity part of the tracking actuator 3 of a tracking driving signal Ftf from a tracking phase compensating filter 10 is outputted as a brake signal Fb1 by a brake signal generating part 11 in accordance with the judging direction. Thus, the highly precise tracking retraction becomes possible in accordance with the driving direction of the tracking actuator 3 exactly, and the operation of the stable tracking retraction is exactly and quickly performed by an effective braking operation.

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To surely generate a track-cross signal by applying the present invention concerning an optical disk device and a tracking-controlling method to, for example, an optical disk device for a DVD. SOLUTION: A side beam scans the position which is offset by nearly (1/4+n) P or (3/4+n) P to a main beam in the direction of the radius of the optical disk 22 and the track-cross signal TCS is generated by generating a difference signal from push-pull signals PPs1 and PPs2 of the returned light by the side beam. Thus, the results H and E of the receipt of the returned light of the side beam on the remote side are processed and subjected to subtraction to a push-pull signal PPm by the returned light of the main beam.

Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To enable accurate recording and reproducing clocks to be generated by making constant the line density for the wave number regarding wobbling waveform of a track and forming a rotation angle mark indicating a prescribed rotation angle position of a disk. SOLUTION: Data are recorded while keeping constant line density(CLD), and the number of carrier waves of a wobbling group is assumed to CLD, further, a fine clock mark is added as CAV reference, and record and reproduction being more accurate are aimed at, and the wobbling period of a group is set. First, in adjacent tracks, the phase relation of a wobbling waveform is made so that a rotation angle position to be fixed relation exists. For example, when a rotation angle position of a start point of each rotation track is assumed to be 0 degree (the direction of 12 o'clock of a clock), the phase difference between adjacent tracks is made to have fixed relation at this position 0 degree. Further, a fine clock mark is added to a rotation angle position in fixed relation when phase difference is 0, 180, or 270 degrees.
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To shorten access time and to reduce power consumption by reducing a speed difference between the rotational speed when scanning the innermost periphery of a disk and that when scanning the outermost periphery than the speed difference when reproducing all areas at a specified linear velocity. SOLUTION: The reproduction is performed by switching a CLV servo to/ from a CAV servo according to a reproducing scan position in the radial direction of the disk 90. The table data for switching the linear velocity are stored in a memory 17, and the area is set by an address value, and spindle servo control operation in respective areas are set. Then, as for the change of a rotational speed in the radial direction of the disk, the speed difference between the rotational speed at the disk innermost periphery and the rotational speed at the disk outermost periphery is reduced than the speed difference in normal CLV reproduction.
