Abstract

An optical communication apparatus may include a frequency locking module and a signal light generation module. The frequency locking module is configured to: generate a target wavelength control signal based on an optical frequency difference indication signal and send the target wavelength control signal to the signal light generation module. The frequency locking module is further configured to generate a target electrical modulation signal based on a target optical frequency difference, a target electrical frequency difference, and to-be-transmitted bit information that are determined by using the optical frequency difference indication signal. The signal light generation module is configured to: generate third signal light based on the target wavelength control signal and the target electrical modulation signal and send the third signal light to a second optical communication apparatus.
