Bias control apparatus and method of modulator of optical transmitter and optical transmitter
Abstract:
A bias control apparatus and method of a modulator of an optical transmitter and an optical transmitter, in which by performing mutual interference on driving signals of two Mach-Zehnder modulators constituting the modulator of the optical transmitter, output optical fields of the two Mach-Zehnder modulators are correlated. Hence, an output power signal of the modulator of the optical transmitter contains information on phase bias. Thus, the phase bias may be controlled by using the output power signal, sensitivity of the bias control may be efficiently improved, and various types of modulation formats may be applied.
