Information storage medium with wobbled groove having wobble period based on multi-frequency shift keying

1. An information storage medium including a wobbled groove, wherein

the wobbled groove wobbles in a radial direction,

the wobbled groove has a wobble period which is based on multi-frequency shift keying corresponding to playback control information, the multi-frequency shift keying including 2-frequency shift keying,

the playback control information contains address data,

the playback control information has a one wobble-word length corresponding to a wobbled pattern change period of the wobbled groove,

physical sector data recorded along the wobbled groove has a one-sync-frame length corresponding to the wobbled pattern change period,

a one-physical-sector-data length corresponds to a one-address-data length the multi-frequency shift keying contains frequencies each of which satisfies orthogonal conditions,

a minimum time slot interval within which each of the frequencies satisfies the orthogonal conditions is defined as Ts,

a difference between a wobble signal obtained from the wobbled groove and a delayed wobble signal is integrated for a length of the wobbled pattern change period, the delayed wobble signal being obtained by delaying the wobble signal by Ts,

a point of time when symbols indicating the playback control information are switched is detected by integrating the difference, and

the symbols are derived from the wobble signal based on a detected point of time.

2. An information recording apparatus for recording information on an information storage medium having a wobbled groove, wherein a length of a wobble period i modulated by multi-frequency shift keying corresponding to playback control information and including 2-frequency shift keying comprising:

a read section configured to read the playback control information from the wobble period of the wobbled groove; and

a recording section configured to record target physical sector data at a target position along the wobble groove on the basis of the playback control information read by the read section,
