ABSTRACT:
A modulating apparatus wherein input data is modulated in the case of recording code data, which can be read optically, on a recording medium, so that a number of consecutive bits of a predetermined value in the code data is less than a predetermined number of consecutive bits of the predetermined value in a reference mark (e.g., a marker in a dot code), in order to discriminate the code data from the reference mark. An 8-10 modulating apparatus for modulating 8-bit input data to 10-bit data comprises two 4-5 modulating units (memories) for converting 4-bit input data to 5-bit data. And a 10-8 demodulating apparatus for demodulating 10-bit input data to 8-bit data comprises two 5-4 demodulating units for converting 5-bit input data to 4-bit data.
