An optical network device includes a receiver that receives a polarization multiplexed optical signal and a processor. The processor separates an electric field information signal indicating the polarization multiplexed optical signal into first and second polarization components orthogonal to each other, generates third and fourth polarization components by controlling the first and second polarization components, calculates an evaluation value corresponding to a power of the third or fourth polarization component for each of a plurality of positions on a transmission line, calculates a variation in the evaluation value for a control amount for each of the plurality of positions, and decides whether a first position is a position to be detected based on a result of comparing a variation in an evaluation value for the first position with a variation in an evaluation value for a second position adjacent to the first position.

A phase synchronization method uses a removal path for removing an error component contained in an input signal and a delay addition path for adding a delay corresponding to a processing time period taken to remove the error component in the removal path. The removal path includes an averaging section. The averaging section includes a shift register and an obtaining unit. The shift register stores as many data as the maximum number of data to be averaged and successively receives processing data from which the error component has been extracted in the removal path. The obtaining unit obtains, among the successive processing data input to the shift register, as many processing data as the number of data to be averaged from a position near the center toward both ends in the shift register.
