Radial runout detection method and device for an optical disk drive
A radial runout detection method and device for an optical disk drive, which sets a reference locus at a location distant from a current beam locus by M, a minimum track number, a maximum track number and a detection time, and executes the following steps in the detection time: increasing M when a data track across the current beam locus moves toward a direction of the reference locus, and otherwise decreasing M; setting the minimum track number as M when M decreased is smaller than the minimum track number; setting the maximum track number as M when M increased is greater than the maximum track number. Accordingly, a runout track number is computed by subtracting the minimum track number from the maximum track number.
