Abstract
The present invention provides a method of generating time-division multiplexed encoded transmission signals, including encoding optical pulse signals for each of a plural multiplexed channels and generating a transmission signal for each channel, performing time division multiplexing on first and second transmission signals and generating a 2-channel multiplexed signal modulating the multiplexed signal with a modulation signal having a frequency of (F−Δf) Hz, detecting a strength of a Δf Hz frequency component of the multiplexed signal changing a time delay amount of the second transmission signal with respect to the first transmission signal, and determining a time delay amount at which a strength of the Δf Hz frequency component is minimized and adjusting the transmission signals of the individual channels such that they are arranged at equidistant intervals on a time axis.
