Information recording and reproducing apparatus, and information recording and reproducing method

摘要

According to one embodiment, in an information recording and reproducing apparatus, a record data correction unit generates correction data for correcting a record waveform generated according to record data. Further, the information recording and reproducing apparatus generates discrimination data for use in pattern discrimination performed to generate the correction data, using decoded data outputted from a PRML signal processing unit and the record data, and outputs the generated discrimination data to the record data correction unit.
