Position control apparatus and position control method

摘要

There is provided a position control apparatus including a light radiating/receiving unit that performs radiation of laser light for recording and laser light for adjacent track servo onto an optical disc recording medium through a common objective lens, and receives return light of the laser light for the adjacent track servo and the laser light for the reference surface, a tracking mechanism unit that displaces the objective lens, a reference surface tracking error signal generating unit that generates a reference surface tracking error signal, a reference surface tracking servo control unit that controls the tracking mechanism unit, a recording layer tracking error signal generating unit that generates a recording layer tracking error signal, an integrating unit that integrates the recording layer tracking error signal, an offset providing unit that provides an integration output by the integrating unit, and a feedforward control unit that generates a control signal.

1. A position control apparatus comprising:
a light radiating/receiving unit that performs radiation of laser light for recording and laser light for adjacent track servo targeted at a recording layer and radiation of laser light for a reference surface targeted at the reference surface, onto an optical disc recording medium including the reference surface to which a position guider is provided and the recording layer where information recording is performed, through a common objective lens, and receives return light of the laser light for the adjacent track servo and the laser light for the reference surface; a tracking mechanism unit that displaces the objective lens in a tracking direction; a reference surface tracking error signal generating unit that generates a reference surface tracking error signal showing tracking error of a radiation spot of the laser light for the reference surface with respect to the position guider, on the basis of a light reception signal with respect to the return light of the laser light for the reference surface obtained by the light radiating/receiving unit; a reference surface tracking servo control unit that controls the tracking mechanism unit, on the basis of a tracking servo signal generated on the basis of the reference surface tracking error signal; a recording layer tracking error signal generating unit that generates a recording layer tracking error signal showing tracking error of a radiation spot of the laser light for the adjacent track servo with respect to a recording track, on the basis of a light reception signal with respect to the return light of the laser light for the adjacent track servo obtained by the light radiating/receiving unit; an integrating unit that integrates the recording layer tracking error signal; an offset providing unit that provides an integration output by the integrating unit as an offset with respect to a control target value by the tracking servo control unit; and a feedforward control unit that generates a control signal based on the integration output by the integrating unit and provides the control signal with respect to the tracking servo signal by the reference surface tracking servo control unit.
