An optical transmission system includes an optical transmitter that includes first and second light sources, first and second phase modulators respectively modulating light from the first and the second light sources, and a polarized beam combiner combining the light output from the first and the second phase modulators to output an optical signal; and an optical receiver that includes a local oscillator, a polarization beam splitter splitting, according to polarization, the optical signal transmitted from the optical transmitter, and first and second digital coherent receivers corresponding to the first and the second phase modulators, and including a frontend that mixes light from the local oscillator and the polarization-split optical signal to output an electrical signal of real and imaginary parts, an analog-digital converting unit converting the electrical signal to a digital signal, and a digital signal processing unit estimating phase of the digital signal and extracting a signal. |
