By using low-frequency signals, an optical transmitting unit modulates one of a wavelength, a transmission timing, and an intensity of light as a carrier wave. A polarization multiplexer synthesizes the output light signals, modulated by the optical transmitting unit, in polarization states orthogonal to each other and generates polarization-multiplexing signals. A polarization splitter splits by extracting two orthogonal polarization components from the polarization-multiplexing signals. The polarization states of the polarization-multiplexing signals are controlled by a polarization controller in an optical receiving unit. A band-pass filter extracts components transmitting through passbands from output signals of the optical receiving unit and outputs an intensity of the components. Based on the intensity output from the filter, a controlling circuit generates feedback control signals for maximizing a ratio of the components of the low-frequency signals and by using the feedback control signals, the polarization controller controls the polarization states of the optical multiplexing signals.

An attenuation amount corresponding to each wavelength at OADM node is optimized according to a calculation result in a network management system (NMS), so that an optical signal level diagram according to traffic volume variations is set, the level diagram allows each of optical signal quality indexes at terminal nodes for all wavelengths to be maintained at a required threshold value or more, and allows an optical signal quality index of a specific wavelength to be improved. Then, an FEC circuit in an optical receiver corresponding to the specific wavelength is turned OFF or the error correction ability is lowered, whereby power consumption of an overall optical network is efficiently reduced.

The optical modulator branches an input light into (2×N) lights in an optical branching section, and then phase modulates each of the branched lights in (2×N) phase modulating sections, and couples the phase modulated lights in an optical coupling section and generates a quadrature amplitude modulated (QAM) signal light having a 4N value. At this time, a relative difference of optical phases of the phase modulated lights is variably adjusted by an optical phase adjusting section. Moreover, a power ratio of the phase modulated lights is variably adjusted with an optical power adjusting section. As a result, it is possible to output 4N QAM signal light, with good signal quality.

In an optical receiver according to the present invention, an input signal light subjected to the differential quadrature phase shift keying (DQPSK) is incident on a PANDA type fiber in a linearly polarized state by 45°, so that a delay time difference corresponding to one symbol is generated between orthogonal polarization components in the DQPSK signal light, and then, the signal light is branched by a half mirror into two, to be sent to first and second paths respectively, thereby giving, by a ¼ wave plate disposed on one of the paths, a relative birefringent amount difference of π/2 between the lights propagated through the respective paths. Then, each of the lights propagated through the first and second paths is separated into two orthogonal polarization components by a polarization beam splitter, and the respective polarization components are received by a differential reception circuit so that in-phase components and quadrature components in the DQPSK signal are demodulated. Thus, a small sized and low cost optical receiver capable of stably demodulating the DQPSK signal is provided.
