Original Abstract Submitted
A receiver includes a light receiver including a light-receiving ring including a plurality of light-receiving elements arranged in an annular shape and a light-receiving plate including at least one light-receiving element, a ball lens placed on a ring formed by the light-receiving ring, and a reflector arranged in a gap formed between the light-receiving ring and the light-receiving plate. The plurality of light-receiving elements constituting the light-receiving ring are arranged with a light-receiving surface facing an inner side of the ring formed by the light-receiving ring. The light-receiving element included in the light-receiving plate is disposed inside the ring formed by the light-receiving ring with a light-receiving surface facing the ball lens placed on the light-receiving ring.
