A Phase Change Rewritable (PCR) optical disk has advantages, such as direct overwritability and high speed random access suitable for non-linear video editing, but it is necessary to increase both recording rate and capacity in order to realize high quality and long time digital video storage systems. For this purpose, this paper proposes a new Double-sided 4-head MCAV (DMCAV) method and a Mark Edge Recording (MER) technique with a 30cm diameter PCR disk.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
