A demultiplex unit demultiplexes the optical output of a Mach-Zehnder optical modulator and inputs the demultiplexed optical output to a wavelength detection unit. The wavelength detection unit detects the wavelength deviations in the ascending or descending part of the optical signal and inputs the wavelength deviations to a detection unit. The detection unit detects the sign and magnitude of chirping in the magnitude of wavelength deviation and inputs the sign and magnitude of chirping to a driving voltage control unit. The driving voltage control unit compares the detected sign and amount of chirping with the target sign and magnitude of chirping, and a driving voltage generation circuit provides the Mach-Zehnder optical modulator with a suitable driving voltage.
