Abstract

A signal processing circuit includes: a first compensator configured to compensate for waveform distortion corresponding to chromatic dispersion of a received optical signal by using digital electrical signals obtained by sampling analog electrical signals by using a sampling signal, the analog electrical signals being obtained by opto-electric conversion of multiple optical signals that include an intensity of the received optical signal and phase information thereon; and a chromatic dispersion compensation controller configured to control a compensation value for the chromatic dispersion in the first compensation from the digital electrical signals in which the chromatic dispersion has been compensated for on the basis of a detected phase offset between the sampling signal and a modulation frequency of the received optical signal.
