Abstract Optical information recording medium in which, information of a data format constructed by an ID section and a data section can be recorded and regenerated from both regions of a land portion and a groove portion formed on a disk face. Information such as an address is recorded to the ID section as a format by a PPM recording system when information is recorded to the data section by a PWM recording system. The information recording medium may have a land portion and a groove portion formed in a spiral or concentric shape. A land mark may be formed in a position information section of the land portion and constructed by a pit recorded as position information, and a groove mark may be formed in a position information section of the groove portion. The groove mark may be constructed using an interrupting portion between grooves and recorded as independent position information different from the position information of the land portion.
An optical information recording medium having a groove and a land region for recording information of a data format constructed by an ID section on which a pattern is formed as a preformat at a manufacturing time of said medium and a data section in one sector on both of said groove region and said land region; wherein said pattern is arranged by shifting phases from each other in said land portion and said groove portion adjacent each other, wherein said ID section has VFO patterns arranged on center lines of said land portion and said groove portion and phases of said VFO patterns are shifted from each other by a predetermined angle in said land portion and said groove portion adjacent to each other.
