Abstract
An optical reception device includes: an optical demultiplexer that has an input port and output ports, and configured to demultiplex a wavelength-multiplexed signal light input from the input port into a signal light for each wavelength and output the signal light from each of the output ports; a multi-wavelength light output circuit configured to output a wavelength light for each wavelength included in the wavelength-multiplexed signal light to the input port of the optical demultiplexer; and a processor configured to control the optical demultiplexer and the multi-wavelength light output circuit, wherein the optical demultiplexer includes symmetric Mach-Zehnder interferometers that each have a pair of arms of different lengths, and adjustors respectively that adjust optical phases in the asymmetric Mach-Zehnder interferometers, the asymmetric Mach-Zehnder interferometers are connected to each other in a tree-like shape so as to connect the input port and the output ports.
