Abstract
A polarization multiplex optical transmitter circuit can provide compensation for the transmission PDL while reducing decrease in transmission power. The polarization multiplex optical transmitter circuit includes a beam divider circuit configured to divide light outputted from a light source, optical phase shifters provided in at least one of two waveguides connected to output terminals of the beam divider circuit, a light wave synthesizer circuit connected to the two waveguides, first and second optical transmitters coupled to two output terminals of the light wave synthesizer circuit, a polarization multiplexer configured to synthesize two output polarized waves from the first and second optical transmitters, and a polarization rotator provided between the first and second optical transmitters and the polarization multiplexer and coupled to at least one of the first and second optical transmitters.
