Abstract
A magnetic recording method is provided where ternary data is recorded on a magnetic recording medium by forming a first area that corresponds to a first value of the data and in which a first magnetization state is continued at least during the minimum write width. A second area that corresponds to a second value of the data in which a second magnetization state is oppositely magnetized as compared with the first magnetization state is continued at least during the minimum write width. A third area that corresponds to a third value of the data in which the magnetic intensity detected by the read head corresponds to a '0.' Accordingly, the ternary data can be recorded using the characteristic that a signal having a width narrower than the detection width of the read head is not detected by the read head.
