Abstract
A signal recording/reproducing apparatus equipped with a recording head section for recording signals on a recording medium and a reproducing head section for reproducing the signals recorded on the recording medium. The recording head section is arranged to record the signal to form N recording sub-tracks on the recording medium and the reproducing head section has M reproducing sub-heads which trace the N recording sub-tracks to reproduce the recording signal. The pitch of the M sub-heads thereof is equal to a pitch of the recording sub-tracks and the number M of the sub-heads is greater than the number N of the recording sub-tracks. The reproducing head section is coupled to a reproduction signal detecting section which is turn eliminates the interference and the crosstalk between adjacent tracks from the reproduced signal due to the reproducing head section. This arrangement allows narrowing the track pitch to increase the recording capacity and extremely improving the transfer rate concurrently with the elimination of the interference between the adjacent codes and crosstalk between the adjacent tracks.
