Abstract

An optical disk device of the present invention performs at least one of recording and reproduction of an optical disk in which a wobble signal is included along a data-recording track, by rotating the optical disk and by scanning the track on the optical disk using an optical head. The device includes: an extraction section for extracting the wobble signal of the optical disk from an output of the optical head; a synchronization clock generation section for generating a synchronization clock signal based on the wobble signal extracted by the extraction section; and a recording/reproduction section for performing at least one of recording and reproduction of data to/from the optical disk by the synchronization clock signal generated by the synchronization clock generation section.
