Abstract
An optical receiver including: a phase modulation unit that generates local oscillation light and modulates a phase of the local oscillation light; a coherent detection unit that causes a received optical signal and the local oscillation light phase-modulated by the phase modulation unit to interfere and converts the optical signal to an electrical signal; a polarization separation/adaptive equalization unit that performs polarization separation and adaptive equalization on the electrical signal after coherent detection; and decoding units that decode the polarization-separated electrical signals outputted from the polarization separation/adaptive equalization unit.
