Signal regeneration device, optical receiver, and signal processing method

摘要

A signal regeneration device which makes an extracted clock signal highly accurate while maintaining superior receiving sensitivity. To this end, a device of the present invention is configured to have a branch section for branching an input electrical signal which has been demodulated from a differential phase-shift modulated state; a first filter for equalizing a waveform of one of the demodulated electrical signals branched by the branch section; a clock recovery section for recovering a clock signal from the demodulated electrical signal whose waveform has been equalized by the first filter; and a data regeneration section for regenerating a data signal from a remaining one of the demodulated electrical signals branched by the branch section and from a clock signal recovered by the clock recovery section.
