Abstract
An optical modulator includes: an encoder that encodes an input data signal; a branch circuit that branches an optical signal into first and second optical signals; a first arm through which the first optical signal branched at the branch circuit passes; a first phase shifter group on the first upper arm that adjusts a phase shift amount of the first optical signal that passes through the first arm; a second arm through which the second optical signal branched at the branch circuit passes; a second phase shifter group on the second arm that adjusts a phase shift amount of the second optical signal that passes through the second arm such that a sign of the phase shift amount of the second optical signal becomes opposite to a sign of the phase shift amount of the first optical signal; and a multiplexing circuit that multiplexes the first optical signal.
