An optical transmitter includes an EA modulator, a photocurrent detection circuit, a modulator drive circuit, and a CPU. The EA modulator converts an input signal into an optical signal and outputs the optical signal. The photocurrent detection circuit detects an optical absorption current (a photocurrent) in the EA modulator. The modulator drive circuit controls the EA modulator. The CPU calculates a voltage to be applied to the modulator drive circuit based on the optical absorption current detected by the photocurrent detection circuit. |
