A signal for each wavelength is extracted from multiplexed light signals that are wavelength-multiplexed and transmitted, and an evaluation value showing a degree of signal deterioration caused by polarization mode dispersion for each wavelength is measured. Then, the wavelength of a target of the polarization mode dispersion compensation is selected based on the evaluation value and the polarization mode dispersion compensation is implemented for only the light signal of the selected wavelength.
