ABSTRACT:
A vibration quantity measuring apparatus and method, and a loop design method in which a vibration quantity generated in a focus and tracking loop is accurately measured to optimally design a focus and tracking loop of an optical disc drive. The vibration quantity measuring apparatus includes an error gain adjusting unit which adjusts an amplitude of a focus and tracking error which occurs where a disc rotates, so as to maintain the amplitude of the focus and tracking error constant, a loop gain adjusting unit which compares a closed loop phase of a focus and tracking loop and a predetermined reference closed loop phase, and maintains a constant gain of the focus and tracking loop to compensate for a gain difference of an actuator, and a measuring unit which calculates and outputs a vibration quantity using an error adjusted by the error gain adjusting unit and the loop gain adjusting unit, and an output of a controller which controls a focus and tracking of the disc. According to the methods and apparatus, a focus and tracking vibration quantity that occur differently depending on the type of a disc, on which data is recorded on or read from, or depending on a speed factor of a disc drive, can be measured.
