Abstract
An aspect of the present invention is an optical transmitter including: a first modulation unit configured to generate an optical modulated signal through intensity modulation of an optical signal; a second modulation unit configured to generate an optical modulated signal through phase/frequency modulation of the optical signal; and a modulation scheme switching unit configured to switch a modulator of the optical signal to one of the first and second modulation units. The modulation scheme switching unit switches the modulator to a modulation unit corresponding to a device of a connection destination between the first and second modulation units.
