An optical modulator achieving high extinction ratio and an optical modulator system. By a control system performing an adjustment method comprising predetermined steps by applying a bias voltage daringly to a modulation electrode for switching the USB signal and LSB signal of an established optical SSB modulator or optical FSK modulator, a means for adjusting bias voltage applied to each bias electrode preferably automatically is provided and a bias point where the extinction ratio of an optical modulator is maximized can be obtained.
