ABSTRACT:
A first transmitting section frequency-multiplexes a data signal and a monitor signal, and then converts the resultant signal to an optical signal for output. A first receiving section converts the optical signal transmitted via a first optical transmission path and a wavelength demultiplexer into an electrical signal, and then extracts the monitor signal. A difference detector compares a monitor signal level with a predetermined reference level, and then outputs wavelength information to a second optical transmission path. Based on the wavelength information transmitted via the second optical transmission path, a first wavelength controller adjusts the wavelength of the optical signal for stabilization at a predetermined wavelength. Thus, it is possible to achieve a wavelength division multiplex transmission system capable of controlling the wavelength of the optical signal at low cost.
