Abstract
An optical disc () according to the present invention has a recording area divided into 28 zones of from a zone Zto a zone Z. In a given zone, the number of waves of a wobble is set so as to be equal, that is, the number of waves of the ADIP carrier is set so as to be equal, between optional two neighboring turns of the track or between optional two neighboring tracks. This achieves inphase-outphase matching on an average, for decreasing a WPP signal, so that such an optical disc may be provided in which no low frequency components are superposed on push-pull signals, even though the optical disc is of such a type in which the track pitch is narrower than 1.6 μm, such as 1.25 μm, or in which a mark is detected by DWDD from a groove, as in the case of the next generation MD
