Abstract
Provided is an optical receiver including: a heterodyne detection unit that converts, by heterodyne detection, a subcarrier multiplexed signal in which a plurality of optical signals transmitted from a plurality of optical transmitters are multiplexed, into an electrical signal in an intermediate frequency band; a filter unit that removes a carrier component from the electrical signal in the intermediate frequency band, generated by the conversion, to extract a subcarrier component; an analog-digital conversion unit that performs analog-digital conversion on a signal having the subcarrier component, extracted by the filter unit; and a digital signal processing unit that performs digital signal processing for each subcarrier on a digital signal generated by the analog-digital conversion performed by the analog-digital conversion unit.
