Abstract
Signal processing means includes carrier compensation means for compensating for a phase difference and a frequency difference between signal light and local light in relation to two polarization signals, so as to generate two carrier compensated signals, symbol determination means for demodulating the two carrier compensated signals on the basis of a signal arrangement of multi-value modulation, symbol rough-determination means for demodulating the two carrier compensated signals on the basis of a signal arrangement in which the number of multi-values of the multi-value modulation is reduced, selection means for selecting either of an output of the symbol determination means and an output of the symbol rough-determination means, and coefficient setting means for updating filter coefficients of polarized wave separation means by using an output selected by the selection means.
