Abstract

There is disclosed a modulation method in which a four bit unit of a plurality of continuous input data words is encoded into a six bit unit of a plurality of continuous output code words by referring to a plurality of coding tables including output code words corresponding to input data words, and coding table designation information in which a coding table for use in encoding the next input data word is designated. The plurality of coding tables includes at least a first coding table and a second coding table, and first and second signals respectively obtained by subjecting a first output code word of said first coding table corresponding to a predetermined input data word and a second output code word of said second coding table corresponding to said predetermined input data word to NRZI modulation are reverse to each other in polarity. Further, in particular, two redundant bits are inserted into the plurality of continuous output code words for each predetermined number of corresponding data words. Even with such redundant bits, a DSV control is performed in any section, k satisfies 9 in a (1, k) RLL rule, and a repetition frequency of a minimum run is limited.
