ABSTRACT:
In an ultrahigh-speed clock extraction circuit wherein a local pulse generating light source22for generating a local optical pulse stream synchronized in bit phase with an input optical signal pulse stream is placed in a phase-locked loop, when repetition frequencies of the input optical signal pulse stream and the local optical pulse stream bear a particular relationship, a frequency demultiplier32and multipliers43and52are set so that the frequency of a modulation signal for an optical modulator41and a frequency which is a natural-number multiple of the modulation signal frequency, and the frequency of a down-converted version of an optical pulse stream output from a photodetector42differ from each other.
