Abstract
A first run length encoder implements run length modulation of a first information signal to generate a second information signal of a run-length-limited code while subjecting the second information signal to DSV control and adding a sync signal to the second information signal to get a third information signal. A converter changes the third information signal into an NRZI signal including information code words. A parity generator produces original parity signals in response to the information code words in the NRZI signal, and combines the information code words and the original parity signals to form a first parity-added signal. A second run length encoder implements run length modulation of only the original parity signals in the first parity-added signal to convert the first parity-added signal into a second parity-added signal while subjecting the second parity-added signal to DSV control. The second parity-added signal is recorded on a recording medium.
