We proposed a new P-rmtr (1,7) code (P-rmtr : Prohibit rmtr) for Optical/Magueto-Optical disk systems. The P-rmtr (1,7) code, (d, k : m, n)=(1.7 : 2.3), has same paraneters as RLL (1,7) code and prohibit repeated minimum transition ruuleugth (rmtr). By the prohibited rmtr, the recording/playback performance at a high linear deusity is improved. In addition, when using a PR (1,1,1,1) ML, the pass of the covnentional RLL (1,7) code could not merge. However the P-rmtr (1,7) code can merge.
