<p>I branch is provided with a first interferometer, a first balanced optical detector, and a first data recovery circuit. Q branch is provided with a second interferometer, a second balanced optical detector and a second data recovery circuit. In I branch, a mixer multiples input signal of the first data recovery circuit with output signal of the second recovery circuit. An averaging circuit averages output signal of the mixer. In Q branch, a mixer multiples input signal of the second data recovery circuit with output signal of the first recovery circuit. An averaging circuit averages output signal of the mixer. A first phase control apparatus controls the phase of a phase shifter comprised in the first interferometer based on the output signal of the averaging circuit. A second phase control apparatus, in the same manner, controls the phase of a phase shifter comprised in the second interferometer.</p> |
