Abstract

Disclosed is an optical receiver. The optical receiver includes an optical splitter that splits an external light signal to output a first light signal and a second light signal, a first amplifier that amplifies the first light signal in a linear gain section to output an amplified first light signal, a second amplifier that amplifies the second light signal in a saturation gain section to output an amplified second light signal, a polarization division hybrid that outputs an in-phase hybrid light signal and a quadrature-phase hybrid light signal, based on a reference light signal and the amplified second light signal, and an optoelectronic conversion unit that outputs an electrical signal, based on the amplified first light signal, the in-phase hybrid light signal, and the quadrature-phase hybrid light signal.
