High-Speed Flexible Optical Disk for Broadcast Archival Storage

We developed a prototype of a flexible optical disk (FOD) drive with a mechanical stabilizer. We prepared the FOD that had a high recording sensitivity of a recording layer and had low byte error rates below $2 \times 10^{-4}$ at speeds from 36 to 252 Mbps, and examined the recording of video data o...

Description
Summary:We developed a prototype of a flexible optical disk (FOD) drive with a mechanical stabilizer. We prepared the FOD that had a high recording sensitivity of a recording layer and had low byte error rates below $2 \times 10^{-4}$ at speeds from 36 to 252 Mbps, and examined the recording of video data on the FOD and the drive. We could record and play a high-definition television (HDTV) video (MPEG-2, 422P@HL) seamlessly at 144 Mbps over the entire area of the FOD and the FOD drive with broadcast video systems. We confirmed that the FOD and the FOD drive can record and play HDTV signals for professional broadcast use.
