ABSTRACT:
Input digital data are formatted into a data block composed of a predetermined amount of data, subjected to error correction encoding process, and recorded on a predetermined number of continuous tracks of a recording medium. In the error correction encoding process, the data block is subjected to an inter-track error correction encoding, an outer error correction encoding and an inner error correction encoding. In the inter-track error correction encoding, each information element to be coded is produced by symbols collected from the data which are to be recorded on different tracks of the continuous tracks. The error correction encoded data in the data block are distributed to a first predetermined recording area of each track of the continuous tracks, and parity code words produced by the inter-track error correction encoding are distributed to a second predetermined recording area of each track of the continuous tracks.
