Abstract
Abstract A method of recording data in a recording medium is performed by using an RLL (Run Length Limited) Code represented by (d,k,m,n)=(1,7,2,3). When it is assumed that X is an indeterminate bit which is determined by the data, a one-byte resync signal with a pattern represented by "X01000000001" is periodically inserted into the data. Then, the data into which the resync signal is inserted is recorded on the recording medium. A method of recording data in a recording medium in accordance with NRZI (Non Return to Zero Inverted) recording is performed by using an RLL code represented by (d,k,m,n)=(1,7,2,3). When it is assumed that X is an indeterminate bit which is determined by the data, one of one-byte resync signals represented by patterns "X01000000001" and "X01000000101" is selected such that a DSV (Digital Sum Value) of a coded signal is decreased. The selected resync signal is periodically inserted into the data. Then, the data into which the resync signal is inserted is recorded on the recording medium.
