    摘要: A wavelength stabilizing filter has a wavelength transmission characteristic curve that has its peak in a wavelength located between a first continuous set band and a second continuous set band longer in wavelength than the first set band, and that linearly drops from the peak toward the shorter wavelength side than the first set band and also toward the longer wavelength side longer than the second set band. A control unit generates a control signal needed to enable an optical tunable filter to extract signal light with a predetermined wavelength from an inputted WDM signal, based on light transmitted through the wavelength stabilizing filter.

    摘要: Optical add/drop nodes are used in a network having a pair of optical transmission paths for transmitting optical signals in opposite directions to each other. Each add/drop node comprises a variable split ratio optical coupler for splitting an optical signal output from a transmitter. The split ratio of the variable split ratio optical coupler is set such that the optical power levels of the signals added through the respective optical add/drop nodes are equal to one another respectively on the pair of optical transmission paths.
