ABSTRACT:
A wavelength division multiplexed optical signal transmission method, a wavelength division multiplexed optical signal transmission system and an optical repeater enabling the number of wavelengths to be detected without error even when optical noise is caused in the optical repeater and such functions as adjustment and monitoring of the level of a wavelength division multiplexed optical signal to be performed properly. An optical repeater processes controlled optical signals of different wavelengths individually based on a control optical signal that contains wavelength number information indicating the total number of wavelengths and the presence or absence of a controlled optical signal with respect to each wavelength. Thus, even when optical noise is caused in the optical repeater, the number of wavelengths can be detected without error and such functions as adjustment and monitoring of the level of a wavelength division multiplexed optical signal can be performed properly.
