ABSTRACT:
The optical time division multiplexer generates a time-division-multiplexed optical signal by time-division-multiplexing optical signals of a plurality of channels, the carrier-wave phases of which are shifted with respect to one another. The circulator guides the multiplexed optical signals split by the optical splitter to the optical interference device and the superimposed light outputted from the optical interference device is guided to the optical intensity detector. The optical interference device extends the pulse width of the multiplexed optical signal to a width equal to or more than the bit interval and superimposes the extended light of an adjacent bit onto the extended light. The optical intensity detector detects the intensity of the superimposed light outputted by the optical interference device. The temperature regulator controls the temperature of the modulator so that the phase difference of the carrier waves constituting the optical signal trains is to be a half wavelength.
