Abstract
An optical receiver includes: an optical brancher configured to branch polarization multiplexed light to a first polarization multiplexed light and a second polarization multiplexed light, the polarization multiplexed light in which a pilot signal is superimposed on at least one of a first polarization and a second polarization; an optical fiber configured to transmit the first polarization multiplexed light; a first polarization rotator configured to control a first polarization state of the first polarization multiplexed light output from the optical fiber; a first polarization separator configured to separate the second polarization multiplexed light into a third polarization and a fourth polarization; and a controller configured to control the first polarization rotator based on one of a first pilot signal included in the third polarization and a second pilot signal included in the fourth polarization.
