Abstract
The present invention optimizes recording power based on correct β value. Whether an average of modulation values between the 2-4th AUNs is equal to or less than 65% of an average of modulation values between the 5-7th AUNs or not is judged. Otherwise, the gradual emission is performed, the β value is measured, and then the following requirement is judged:(average of β values between 5-7th AUNs)−(average of β values between 2-4th AUNs)≧0.18 If each requirement is satisfied, track shift is judged to occur. The recording area of high output is compared with the recording area of lower output to judge whether or not magnitude relation matches the correct magnitude relation. Also, whether the difference between the β value of high output and the β value of lower output is equal to or more than the predetermined value (0.18) or not is judged.
