Optical receivers including at least one local oscillator providing local oscillator light at a local oscillator center frequency offset from a received optical signal by a frequency difference. A combiner for combining the optical signal with the local oscillator light and to output at least one combined optical signal. An opto-electrical converter down-converts the combined optical signal into corresponding RF electrical signal at the frequency of the frequency difference. A filter may be provided to at least substantially remove one of the upper and lower electrical signal sidebands to output one of a VSB and SSB RF signal before rectification. A local oscillator frequency controller may adjustably control the local oscillator frequency to provide the difference frequency that produces a specified group delay in the RF electrical signal that may be specified via optical receiver performance parameters and/or user input and offset using a group delay filter.
