In at least one aspect, the present invention is related to methods and apparatuses for detecting the movement of transducer heads in optical storage systems.
Servo systems in optical data recording devices such as optical tape drives utilize tracking error signals, detected from the optical media via an optical pickup unit (OPU) device, to accurately record and then retrieve data on the optical media.
A technique referred to as “Radial Push Pull” Tracking signal generation (also referred to as “Main Push Pull” (MPP), has been conventionally used to generate the Tracking Error Signal (TES) for the rewritable optical recording media preformatted with “land” and “groove” track geometries as set forth above. This scheme generates a reference tracking signal based on the geometries of land and grooved tracks on the media and detectable by a main quad photodetector (QPD) of the OPU.
As depicted in
Accordingly, there is a need for improved methods and apparatuses for detecting the direction of OPU motion.
The present invention solves one or more problems of the prior art, by providing a method for providing tracking error signals in an optical data storage system. In particular, the method generates signals that provide directional information on the motion of Optical Pickup Units across data tracks in optical recording media The optical data storage system includes a head having a wobble detection system. The method includes a step of receiving a wobble signal having a first frequency from the wobble detection system. The wobble detection system includes an optical pick up unit that detects positions of the head relative to lands and grooves. The wobble signal for the optical pick up unit centered on a land is 180 degrees out of phase with the wobble signal for the optical pick up unit centered on a groove. Characteristically, the wobble signal is amplitude modulated for positions intermediate between the land and the groove. The method further includes a step of receiving a primary tracking error signal from the wobble detection system. The wobble signal is multiplied with a synchronous signal to about a product signal. The product signal is positive for a first direction of motion and negative for a second direction of motion that is opposite that of the first direction. The product signal is integrated to obtain a quadrature track error signal. Characteristically, the quadrature track error signal is 90 degrees out of phase with the primary track error signal. The quadrature track error signal and the primary track error signal in combination and individually provide direction information about movement of the tape head across the width of the tape.
In another embodiment, an apparatus for implementing the method set forth above is provided in which tracking error signals are provided in an optical storage system. The apparatus includes a transducer head having a wobble detection system. The wobble detection system includes an optical pick up unit that detects positions of the transducer head relative to lands and grooves and provides a wobble signal having a first frequency. The wobble signal for a land is amplitude modulated for positions intermediate between the land and the groove. A synchronous multiplier multiplies the wobble signal with a square wave signal having the first frequency to provide a product signal. The product signal is positive for a first direction of motion and negative for a second direction of motion that is opposite that of the first direction. An integrator integrates the product signal to obtain a quadrature track error signal. The quadrature track error signal being 90 degrees out of phase with the track error signal, the quadrature track error signal and the track error signal in combination provide direction information about movement of the transducer head across data tracks.
Exemplary embodiments of the present invention will become more fully understood from the detailed description and the accompanying drawings, wherein:

The Figures are not necessarily to scale. However, it is to be understood that the disclosed embodiments are merely exemplary of the invention that may be embodied in various and alternative forms. Therefore, specific details disclosed herein are not to be interpreted as limiting, but merely as a representative basis for any aspect of the invention and/or as a representative basis for teaching one skilled in the art to variously employ the present invention.
Except in the examples, or where otherwise expressly indicated, all numerical quantities in this description indicating amounts of material or conditions of reaction and/or use are to be understood as modified by the word “about” in describing the broadest scope of the invention. Practice within the numerical limits stated is generally preferred. Also, unless expressly stated to the contrary: the first definition of an acronym or other abbreviation applies to all subsequent uses herein of the same abbreviation and applies mutatis mutandis to normal grammatical variations of the initially defined abbreviation; and, unless expressly stated to the contrary, measurement of a property is determined by the same technique as previously or later referenced for the same property.
It is also to be understood that this invention is not limited to the specific embodiments and methods described below, as specific components and/or conditions may, of course, vary. Furthermore, the terminology used herein is used only for the purpose of describing particular embodiments of the present invention and is not intended to be limiting in any way.
It must also be noted that, as used in the specification and the appended claims, the singular form “a,” “an,” and “the” comprise plural referents unless the context clearly indicates otherwise. For example, reference to a component in the singular is intended to comprise a plurality of components.
Throughout this application, where publications are referenced, the disclosures of these publications in their entireties are hereby incorporated by reference into this application to more fully describe the state of the art to which this invention pertains.
Embodiments and variations of the invention, advantageously utilize wobble signal information from a digital data storage media to generate a novel complimentary Quadrature Track Error Signal (QTES) that provides the directions of OPU motion information.

Optical storage system 100 also includes phase lock loop 122 which allows square wave 108 to lock onto wobble signal 80. Phase lock loop 122 receives the appropriate locking frequency from wobble signal 80. Phase lock loop 122 is phase adjustable to maximize product signal 112.

In one refinement, the direct track error signal leads the quadrature track error signal for the first direction of motion d1. In another refinement, the quadrature track error signal leads the direct track error signal for the second direction of motion d2. It should also be observed that quadrature track error signal 120 changes such that the product signal 112 is positive for first direction of motion d1 and negative for second direction of motion d2 that is opposite that of the first direction. Typically, direct track error signal 80 includes a first set of regions that are approximated by linear functions l1 and quadrature track error signal 12 includes a second set of regions that are approximated by linear functions l2. The first set of regions that are approximated by linear functions and the second set of regions that are approximated by linear functions include non-overlapping portions with respect to displacement of the transducer head from a land or groove. Moreover, the first set of regions that are approximated by linear functions and the second set of regions that are approximated by linear functions provide complete linearization of the motion of the transducer head across the data tracks.
