Abstract
Abstract In order to eliminate crosstalk and to provide a high recording density, a method for recording information on a recording disc includes a first step for forming a first portion of recording tracks in which the information signal is recorded on the recording disc under a condition that the angular velocity of rotation of the disc is constant and a space between each track has a first constant value. A second step in values forming a second portion of recording tracks in which the information signal is recorded on the recording disc under a condition that the angular velocity of rotation of the recording disc is varying and the space between each track has a second constant value that is greater than the first constant value. The first and the second portions of the recording tracks are formed alternately.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 16
Claim 1
Independent Claim
153 words
A method for recording an information signal on a recording disc having a first portion of recording tracks in which said information signal is recorded on said recording disc under a condition that the angular velocity of rotation of the disc is constant, and having a second portion of recording tracks in which said information signal is recorded on said recording disc under a condition that the angular velocity of rotation of said recording disc is varying, the first and second portions of recording tracks being formed alternately so as to be interspersed, the improvement comprising the steps of forming the first portion of the recording tracks with a space between each track having a first constant value, and forming the second portion of the recording tracks with a space between each track having a second constant value that is greater than said first constant value whereby crosstalk between adjacent tracks is avoided.
Claim 2
Independent Claim
153 words
A method for recording an information signal on a recording disc having a first portion of recording tracks in which said information signal is recorded on said recording disc under a condition that the angular velocity of rotation of the disc is constant, and having a second portion of recording tracks in which said information signal is recorded on said recording disc under a condition that the angular velocity of rotation of said recording disc is varying, the first and second portions of recording tracks being formed alternately so as to be interspersed, the improvement comprising the steps of forming the first portion of the recording tracks with a space between each track having a first constant value, and forming the second portion of the recording tracks with a space between each track having a second constant value that is greater than said first constant value whereby crosstalk between adjacent tracks is avoided.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
16 words

Claim 4
Dependent Claim
50 words
A method as claimed in claim 1, wherein said information signal includes a synchronizing signal and said first step includes forming said first portion of recording tracks so that positions of the recording tracks in which said synchronizing signals are recorded are aligned along radial directions of said recording disc.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
16 words
A method as claimed in claim 3, wherein said information signal is a video format signal.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
20 words
A method as claimed in claim 1, wherein said second step includes rotating said disc at a constant angular acceleration.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
16 words
A method as claimed in claim 5, wherein said information signal is a video format signal.
Claim 8
Dependent Claim
50 words
A method as claimed in claim 5, wherein said information signal includes a synchronizing signal and said first step includes forming said first portion of recording tracks so that positions of the recording tracks in which said synchronizing signals are recorded are aligned along radial directions of said recording disc.
Claim 9
Dependent Claim
16 words
A method as claimed in claim 7, wherein said information signal is a video format signal.
Claim 10
Dependent Claim
176 words
A recording disc with recording tracks that have recorded thereon an information signal including a synchronizing signal, said disc comprising: (a) a first area of circular recording tracks on the recording disc, the information in said first area of recording tracks recorded on said disc while said disc is rotated at a constant angular velocity in which the synchronizing signals of the recording tracks are aligned in a radial direction of the recording disc, the spaces between each of said recording tracks in said first area having a first constant value; and (b) a second area of circular recording tracks within a on the recording disc, the information in said second area of recording tracks recorded on said disc while said disc is rotated at a changing angular velocity, the spaces between each of said recording tracks in said second area having a second constant value, said second constant value being greater than said first constant value, (c) wherein said first and second areas are interspersed on the disc and the resulting spacing pattern minimizes crosstalk.
Claim 11
Dependent Claim
176 words
A recording disc with recording tracks that have recorded thereon an information signal including a synchronizing signal, said disc comprising: (a) a first area of circular recording tracks on the recording disc, the information in said first area of recording tracks recorded on said disc while said disc is rotated at a constant angular velocity in which the synchronizing signals of the recording tracks are aligned in a radial direction of the recording disc, the spaces between each of said recording tracks in said first area having a first constant value; and (b) a second area of circular recording tracks within a on the recording disc, the information in said second area of recording tracks recorded on said disc while said disc is rotated at a changing angular velocity, the spaces between each of said recording tracks in said second area having a second constant value, said second constant value being greater than said first constant value, (c) wherein said first and second areas are interspersed on the disc and the resulting spacing pattern minimizes crosstalk.
