Abstract
A multilevel-intensity modulation and demodulation system includes: a digital-to-analog conversion unit to convert an output level value of a digital signal into an analog signal; a multilevel-intensity-modulated light transmission unit to transmit an optical signal multilevel-intensity modulated based on the analog signal; a multilevel-intensity-modulated light reception unit to receive the optical signal multilevel-intensity modulated, and convert the received optical signal into an analog reception electrical signal; an analog-to-digital conversion unit to convert the analog reception electrical signal into a reception level value; and a controller to convert a transmission multiple gradation level being one of a plurality of multiple gradation levels of multilevel-intensity modulation to which the digital signal is mapped, into the output level value so as to cause the reception level value to be in a desired reception state, and to receive a digital signal corresponding to a reception multiple-gradation-level determined from the reception level value.
