An optical apparatus includes a quadrature phase shift keying modulator for generating a non-return-to-zero quadrature phase shift keyed NRZ-QPSK signal from a received lightwave, the modulator being driven by a radio frequency RF signal, an intensity modulator for carving the NRZ-QPSK signal to return-to-zero RZ pulses with a different duty cycle than that of the NRZ-QPSK, the intensity modulator being driven by a radio frequency RF clock signal to change the NRZ-QPSK to an RZ-QPSK signal, and an optical filter with a narrow band for filtering the signal from the intensity modulator to increase optical power that is useable by an optical digital coherent detection system.
