This paper clarifies the sideband suppression ratio (SSR) value needed for multi-carrier signal modulation in an optical single sideband (SSB) modulator. An SSR value of about 25 dB is found to be sufficient for broadcast satellite (BS) multi-carrier signal modulation. For FM converted CATV signal modulation, an SSR value of about 10 dB is sufficient. In addition, the properties of cascaded lithium niobate Mach-Zehndar (LN MZ) optical SSB modulators are clarified to be better than those of the conventional single LN MZ optical SSB modulator with nearly the same SSR value of 27 dB.
