Abstract

This application provides example signal processing apparatus and example signal processing method. One example signal processing apparatus includes a sampling unit, a beam combiner, and an optical resonator. The sampling unit is connected to the beam combiner, and the beam combiner is connected to the optical resonator. The sampling unit is configured to sample an analog signal by using an optical pulse signal to output a sampled optical pulse signal. The beam combiner is configured to combine the sampled optical pulse signal and a multi-wavelength optical signal into a first optical signal. The optical resonator is configured to perform resonance based on the first optical signal to output a second optical signal in the first optical signal, where a wavelength of the second optical signal is equal to a resonant wavelength of the optical resonator.
