  • Publication number: 20190158188
    Abstract: An optical signal transmission apparatus generates a multi-level optical signal from a multi-level electric signal. The optical signal transmission apparatus detects, based on a supervisory signal generated from an optical signal, an electric-to-optical (E/O) conversion characteristic of an E/O converter configured to convert an electric signal into an optical signal. For example, when the E/O converter generates a multi-level optical signal from a multi-level electric signal based on a bias signal, the optical signal transmission apparatus determines a correspondence relationship between the bias signal and the optical signal. The optical signal transmission apparatus adjusts a use range of intensities of the bias signal based on the determined correspondence relationship so that the E/O converter may linearly operate.
