A method for writing data onto a medium on which data are stored in tracks includes encoding the data into at least one codeword, and writing a respective portion of each of the at least one codeword onto respective different tracks on the medium. The writing may include writing a respective portion of each of the at least one codeword onto respective different adjacent tracks on the medium. Another method for reading data includes positioning a plurality of read heads to read codewords that have been written across multiple tracks of a medium. Each read head in the plurality of read heads reads a different portion of the first group of the multiple tracks, and where each different portion of the multiple tracks overlaps at least one other different portion of the multiple tracks. Signals are detected from the plurality of read heads, and the detected signals are decoded.

A record playback apparatus of the present disclosure includes a plurality of optical pickups that records information on a recording medium or plays back information from the recording medium; a single transport mechanism that transports the plurality of optical pickups together; and a transport control circuit that drives the single transport mechanism so that, when the single transport mechanism is driven to transport the plurality of optical pickups to respective target positions on the recording medium, absolute value of a maximum value of transport errors of the plurality of optical pickups with respect to the respective target positions becomes substantially equal to absolute value of a minimum value of transport errors of the plurality of optical pickups with respect to the respective target positions.

The present patent relates to a parallel reproducing holographic disk reading method and device, and belongs to the technical field of optical holographic storage. According to an angle-shift multiplexing method included in the present patent, multiplex recording is performed by simultaneously changing an incident angle of a reference light and moving a medium with a fixed angle change amount and a fixed shift amount. In this method, the reference light can be split for incidence, and then holograms in different units can be simultaneously reproduced. According to the method disclosed by the patent, a recorded hologram can be read and written in real time, and a recorded signal can be checked under a condition of satisfying a response time required by the medium.

This application relates to the field of optical storage technologies, and discloses a data read/write system and method. The method can be used to improve a read/write speed of optical storage without increasing a rotational speed of an optical storage medium. The system includes an optical deflector and a read/write optical head. The optical deflector is configured to sequentially deflect a first optical signal by a plurality of angles, to obtain a plurality of second optical signals. The read/write optical head is configured to receive the plurality of second optical signals, and separately focus the plurality of second optical signals on the optical storage medium, to implement reading/writing of a plurality of data points.
