An optical transmitter transmits a data signal. The optical transmitter has an encoder configured to encode the data signal by selecting based on a bit sequence a first symbol and a second symbol from a set of four symbols for each one of at least two transmission time slots.

Symbols in consecutive transmission time slots have non-identical polarization states.
