SIGNAL PROCESSING APPARATUS, SIGNAL PROCESSING METHOD AND PROGRAM
A signal processing device includes a control unit that converts an electrical signal representing a bit string into an optical signal representing a bit string, and removes crosstalk of an n-th main digital signal based on the n-th main digital signal that is a signal transmitted by an n-th transmitter (n is an integer from 1 to N) and a symbol string represented by a result of decoding an optical signal transmitted by at least some of a first transmitter to an N-th transmitter, excluding the n-th transmitter among signals in which the optical signals transmitted by the first transmitter to the N-th transmitter (N is an integer greater than or equal to 2) that transmit the optical signals obtained by conversion and which propagate through a multi core fiber are converted into digital electrical signals
