Abstract
To provide an optical transmitter and an optical transmission method that can maintain the quality of an optical output signal in a wide wavelength range, an optical transmitter comprises: an optical modulator that includes an electrode and outputs an optical output signal obtained by modulating input light according to a drive signal applied to the electrode; a driver circuit that generates a drive signal and is connected to the optical modulator to apply a drive signal to one end of the electrode; a first element that is connected to the other end of the electrode and terminates the drive signal; and a controller that sets a first resistance value of the first element and a drive amplitude of the drive signal.
