Patent ID: 7525888

Claim:
An optical information recording method for recording information on an optical information recording medium of a rotating type, which has a plurality of recording layers each having an information recording area in which information is recorded using a laser beam, said optical information recording method comprising: acquiring a first optimum recording power by using a laser light controller of an optical information recording system to perform an optimum power control (OPC) on a first layer of the recording medium and by then using the laser light controller of the optical information recording system to perform an OPC on a second layer of the recording medium; subsequently, acquiring a second optimum recording power by using the laser light controller of the optical information recording system to perform an OPC on the first layer of the recording medium and by then using the laser light controller of the optical information recording system to perform an OPC on the second layer of the recording medium; storing the acquired first and second optimum recording powers; and recording the information on the optical information recording medium according to a constant angular velocity or zone constant linear velocity method.
