An optical packet signal transmission device includes a transmitting unit which includes a plurality of data delay circuits; a plurality of optical branch units which branches some of the optical packet signals as monitor lights; an optical switch which selects one of the monitor lights; a test signal generation circuit which generates a test signal which is used to adjust a delay amount in the data delay circuits; a reference optical pulse generation circuit which generates a reference optical pulse based on the test signal; an optical phase comparator which detects an relative optical phase difference by comparing the phases of the selected monitor light and the reference optical pulse; and a control circuit which sequentially sends the test signals to the data delay circuits, switches the selected monitor light, detects a relative optical phase, determines the delay amount based on a detection result, and sets the delay amount.
