Abstract
An optical information reproduction apparatus for reproducing a recording signal by irradiating a light beam onto a recording surface of an optical information recording medium having at least two information recording layers and by receiving reflected light of the light beam is provided. The optical information reproduction apparatus includes an extraction section for extracting an envelope signal of a reproduction signal when the reproduction signal reproduced by focusing the light beam onto one information recording layer in the plural information recording layers has been modulated by interlayer crosstalk from another information recording layer; and a distortion correction section for correcting the distortion of the target reproduction signal caused by the interlayer crosstalk by gain-adjusting the reproduction signal containing DC components so that the envelope signal becomes constant.
