An external analog modulation system is described, comprising an electro-optical modulator with a double output and a driving circuit. In particular, it comprises an optical source, an electro-optical modulator, an electrical modulating signal and a driving circuit for said electro-optical modulator, said electro-optical modulator having two optical outputs, supplying a first and a second modulated optical signal, which are complementary to each other, each of said two optical outputs of said modulator being connected to an optical coupler having a branch supplying a portion of modulated optical signal and connected to an optical receiver, capable of generating a first and a second electrical control signal correspondingly in response to a first frequency of said first and second analog modulated optical signals, in which said driving circuit comprises a circuit generating an electrical pilot signal at a second frequency, equal to half of said first frequency, added to said electrical modulating signal; a conversion circuit capable of producing a continuously converted signal proportional to the difference in amplitude between said first and said second electrical control signal; and a bias circuit capable of generating a bias signal in response to said control signal.
