Abstract

An optical receiver includes a converter that converts an optical signal into an electrical data signal, a controller that changes an adjustment value of peaking based on a baud rate of the optical signal, and an amplifier that changes a band characteristic of the converter based on the adjustment value changed by the controller.

Claims (16)

1 . An optical receiver comprising:

a converter that converts an optical signal into an electrical data signal;

a controller that changes an adjustment value of peaking based on a baud rate of the optical signal; and

an amplifier that changes a band characteristic of the converter based on the adjustment value changed by the controller.

2 . The optical receiver according to claim 1 , wherein

the peaking is a characteristic that amplifies an amplitude component in the band characteristic of the converter.

3 . The optical receiver according to claim 1 , wherein

the amplifier adjusts the peaking based on the adjustment value to change the band characteristic of the converter.

4 . The optical receiver according to claim 1 , wherein

the controller includes a memory that stores a table defining a correspondence relationship between the baud rate and the adjustment value, and determines the adjustment value according to the baud rate based on the table.

5 . The optical receiver according to claim 4 , wherein

the correspondence relationship is a relationship in which the adjustment value decreases in response to a decrease in the baud rate.

6 . The optical receiver according to claim 1 , wherein

the controller stores mathematical formula information defining the correspondence relationship between the baud rate and the adjustment value, and calculates the adjustment value according to the baud rate based on the mathematical formula information.

7 . The optical receiver according to claim 6 , wherein

the correspondence relationship is a relationship in which the adjustment value decreases in response to a decrease in the baud rate.
