    Abstract: An apparatus and a method for modulating the optical intensity, with the noises suppressed by using a linear optical modulator, are disclosed, so that the characteristics of signals transmitted from an optical communication system can be improved, and that the resolution of the measured physical quantities can be improved in an optical measuring instrument. The method is carried out in the following manner. That is, the magnitude of frequency is measured by utilizing pilot signals and electrical signals to transfer negatively fed-back signals to an optical intensity modulator. The phase is delayed by generating pilot signals so as to suppress an amplitude noise from the pilot signal caused by nonlinear modulation at the optical intensity modulator. A linear modulation is carried out on the phase-delayed signals and on optical signals from an external source to provide a linear component. The bias voltage is adjusted in accordance with the negatively fed-back signals, and an optical intensity modulation is carried out on the linearly modulated signals and on the added signals, the added signals having been formed by combining the data signals and the pilot signals.
