Abstract
In order to appropriately demultiplex the polarization multiplexed BPSK signal without using a training sequence and decreasing the resistance to a frequency offset, an optical receiver includes a coherent optical detection unit receiving an optical signal in which BPSK modulated carrier waves are polarization-multiplexed, performing coherent detection by mixing the received optical signal with local light, and outputting first electrical signals corresponding to the carrier waves; a butterfly FIR filter receiving the first electrical signals and extracting second electrical signals corresponding to each of the carrier waves from the first electrical signals; and a coefficient control unit for calculating a sum of respective phases of the second electrical signals output from the butterfly FIR filter, adaptively controlling tap coefficients of the butterfly FIR filter so that the calculated phase sum may become equal to 0 or π, and outputting tap coefficients after being controlled to the butterfly FIR filter.
