Abstract:
An optical receiver includes photodetectors each provided on a corresponding channel of multiple channels and configured to detect an optical signal at the corresponding channel, a delay adjuster circuit provided before the photodetectors and configured to adjust a delay time of an optical waveform of an incoming signal on at least one channel, and a processor that controls the delay time such that a change point of a first optical waveform of a first channel is away from a data decision timing of a second optical waveform of a second channel, using information acquired from an electrical signal produced after photo-detection.

Claim (Index 4):
The optical receiver as claimed in  claim 3 ,\n wherein the group delay variable element is formed of silicon, an electro-optic material or a photonic crystal, and wherein the propagation speed adjuster adjusts an index of refraction of the group delay variable element according to a control signal supplied from the processor.
