Abstract
Provided is an optical disk drive including: an actuator for driving an objective lens for applying a beam from a laser to an optical disk to cause a focal point of the beam to move in a focus direction; and a servo controller for receiving an input of a focus error signal and driving the actuator to control a focusing position of the beam, which includes: a compensation unit for generating a drive signal for the actuator based on the focus error signal; a noise detection unit for detecting a noise component by changing a limiter characteristic according to a frequency of the drive signal; and a correction unit for correcting the drive signal by subtracting the noise component from the drive signal. Accordingly, an influence of a tracking error signal leaking into the focus error signal in a focus servo system can be reliably suppressed.
