An information reproducing apparatus method includes the steps of radiating an optical spots (103) to scan information marks recorded on tracks inside a predetermined information recording region, detecting an optical change of the information marks by this scanning operation, executing a signal processing for the reproducing signal (104) so as to reduce inter-symbol interference of an interference amount that varies for each of the information marks, and reproducing the information corresponding to the information mark. The magnitude of the optical change due to the information mark is thereby detected, and a plurality of equalization coefficients (191-1 to 191-n) used for an equalization processing are calculated for the magnitude of the optical change detected for each information mark. The inter-symbol interference is reduced on the basis of these equalization coefficients. In consequence, the inter-symbol interference can be reduced while the equalization coefficients are changed in accordance with the level of the reproducing signal. <IMAGE> |
