Patent ID: 11283527

Abstract:
An optical transmission system includes an optical transmitter and an optical receiver. The optical transmitter includes a low speed signal generation unit configured to generate, based on an input signal of a transmission data sequence and a signal obtained by cyclically shifting a spectrum of the input signal, a plurality of low speed signals, a high speed signal generation unit configured to digital-to-analog convert and synthesize the plurality of low speed signals to generate a high speed signal, and an optical modulation unit configured to transmit an optical signal obtained by modulation of the high speed signal to a transmission path. The optical receiver includes a reception unit configured to receive the optical signal from the transmission path and output the high speed signal obtained from the optical signal that is received, an optical-receiver-side high speed signal compensation unit configured to compensate, based on the high speed signal output by the reception unit and a signal obtained by cyclically shifting a spectrum of the high speed signal, for the high speed signal, and a reception data decoding unit configured to decode the high speed signal compensated by the optical-receiver-side high speed signal compensation unit to restore binary information included in the optical signal transmitted by the optical transmitter.
