With the normal modulation method, it is difficult to construct a Hilbert transform device because it is complicated. To solve the problem, a single sideband modulated optical pulse train is generated by driving a Mach-Zehnder optical modulator for optical pulse generation with a laser source's sine wave clock signals that have been rendered 90 degrees out of phase from each other. The generated pulse train is applied to an optical modulator, modulated with an NRZ (nonreturn-to-zero) data signal, and filtered by a narrow-band optical filter to obtain one of two sidebands.
