ABSTRACT:
An optical transmission system for optical transmission with the capacity of 100 Gb/S over a distance of 9,000 km or more includes an light sending station for outputting an optical signal in the band of 1.55 .mu.m, and an light receiving station connected to the light sending station by an optical fiber transmission line. The optical fiber transmission line includes a plurality of transmission optical fibers connected by optically amplifying repeaters. Each transmission optical fiber is a single-mode optical fiber having an effective cross-sectional area of 80 .mu.m.sup.2 or more. Each optically amplifying repeater includes an erbium-doped optical fiber for pumping in 0.98 .mu.m, WDM coupler for demultiplexing and multiplexing 1.55 .mu.m and 0.98 .mu.m wavelengths, optical isolator and gain equalizing filter, which are connected in series, so as to locate output light from an pumping laser for oscillation in 0.98 .mu.m onto the erbium-doped optical fiber through the WDM coupler.
