A full 3R (re-timing, re-shaping, re-amplifying) recovery system is provided. In the full 3R recovery system, a self-pulsating laser diode (SP-LD) and an electroabsorption modulator (EAM) are integrated and disposed on a semiconductor substrate.

Provided is a signal processor for converting a signal that converts a return to zero (RZ) signal into a non-return to zero (NRZ) signal, in which two 2R (re-amplifying, re-shaping) regenerators are connected in parallel between an input waveguide and an output waveguide with different lengths from each other. The 2R regenerator includes: two semiconductor optical amplifiers having different lengths from each other; and phase control means connected to a short semiconductor optical amplifier. The RZ signal input by a length difference of the waveguide is delayed by a time difference of a half of one bit so that the 2R regenerated NRZ signal can be obtained.
