    Abstract: A forward optical intensity modulation signal, generated by optical intensity-modulating a laser signal using a forward microwave phase modulation signal, is transmitted from a base to a remote station. A backward microwave phase modulation signal, in which frequency of the forward microwave phase modulation signal is changed by demodulating the forward optical intensity modulation signal, is generated, and a backward optical intensity modulation signal, generated by optical intensity-modulating the laser signal using the backward microwave phase modulation signal, is transmitted from the remote station to the base. The backward microwave phase modulation signal is extracted by photoelectric converting the backward optical intensity modulation signal, a round trip timing is extracted by demodulating the backward microwave phase modulation signal, and transmission delay is determined from a difference between the timing and the round trip timing.

    Abstract: An optical oscillator includes a first reflection part configured to reflect light of a first wavelength, a laser medium excited by excitation light of a second wavelength different from the first wavelength and configured to emit light of the first wavelength, a second reflection part configured to form an unstable resonator together with the first reflection part, the unstable resonator being configured to output annular laser light of the first wavelength, and a saturable absorption part disposed between the laser medium and the second reflection part and of which a transmittance increases with absorption of light of the first wavelength. When a power of the excitation light is indicated by Pp (kW), and an inner diameter of the annular laser light is indicated by di, and an outer diameter is indicated by do, and do/di is a magnification m, the magnification m satisfies a0+a1 Log(Pp)≤m≤b0+b1Pp+b2Pp2.
