An optical transmitter outputs WDM signal lights comprising signal lights with 100 wavelengths of 10 Gbit/s, onto an optical transmission fiber. In the optical transmission line, a transmission fiber and a local area dispersion compensation fiber are disposed per repeater span defined by an optical amplification repeater, the local area dispersion compensation fiber is for compensating the average chromatic dispersion in the repeater span to become 2 ps/nm/km as well as a dispersion slope to become zero, and a wide area dispersion compensation fiber for compensating the average chromatic dispersion to become −0.2 ps/nm/km as well as the dispersion slope to become zero is disposed per predetermined number of optical repeater spans. The optical transmission fiber comprises a single mode optical fiber with large core diameter having a zero dispersion wavelength at a 1.3 &mgr;m band and plus chromatic dispersion at a signal wavelength band (a 1.55 &mgr;m band). The optical amplification repeater comprises an erbium-doped optical fiber to be pumped by a 0.98 &mgr;m band pumping light.

An optical fiber transmission line for realizing satisfactory long haul transmission characteristics using two kinds of optical fibers. The optical fiber transmission line includes a plurality of local dispersion compensating spans, wide dispersion compensating spans disposed at predetermined intervals, and optical repeating amplifiers to connect each span. The local dispersion compensating span includes a first optical fiber with positive dispersion having an effective core area of 130 &mgr;m2 or more and a second optical fiber with a negative dispersion value of −50 ps/nm/km or less to transmit the light output from the first optical fiber. The wide dispersion compensating span consists of a third optical fiber having the same configuration and composition with the first optical fiber.

An object of this invention is to improve transmission characteristics in WDM transmission. An optical transmitter (10) wavelength-multiplexes signal lights of wavelengths &lgr;1 through &lgr;n and outputs them onto an optical transmission line (12). Optical powers of the signal lights of the respective wavelength &lgr;1 through &lgr;n are identical or become smaller proportional to the wavelength. One repeater span of the optical transmission line (12) is composed of an optical fibers (20, 22) and an optical amplifier (24), and a gain equalizer (26) is dispersed every several repeater spans. The optical amplifier (24) in the repeater span amplifies each signal light so that optical power of a signal on the shorter wavelength side becomes smaller than that of a signal on the longer wavelength side. The gain equalizer (26) equalizes optical powers of the respective signal lights.

To realize an optical demultiplexer with a constant chromatic dispersion value, an optical signal of wavelength (&lgr;1) enters a port (A) of an optical circulator (10), and an optical signal of wavelength (&lgr;2) enters a port (A) of an optical circulator (12). A port (B) of the optical circulator (10) connects to a port (X0) of an interleaved optical filter (14), and a port (B) of the optical circulator (12) connects to a port (X1) of the optical filter (14). A port (Y0) of the optical filter (14) connects to a port (Y1) of the optical filter (14) through an optical isolator (16). The optical isolator (16) allows the optical propagation from the port (Y0) to the port (Y1) of the optical filter (14) and refuses the optical propagation from the port (Y1) to the port (Y0). An optical coupler (18) combines the input lights of the input ports (X0 and X1) from ports (C) of the optical circulators (10 and 12) and outputs from the output port (Y0). The optical filter (14) transmits wavelength (&lgr;1) in the straight propagation between the ports (X0, Y0) and between the ports (X1, Y1) and transmits wavelength (&lgr;2) in the cross propagation between the ports (X0, Y1) and between the ports (X1, Y0).

An optical signal is transmitted via a WDM device 4 including a transponder 13, an all-optical node 1, and a wavelength multiplexing and demultiplexing optical filter 38. A route and wavelength selecting functional part 32 transmits a band varying request and a wavelength varying request to the transponder 13 based on a requested band of a wavelength path setting request, link information of a network, and band limitation information with respect to each filter wavelength of the wavelength multiplexing and demultiplexing optical filter 38. A multi-rate functional part 36 of the transponder 13 sets a band to be requested to the network side according to the band varying request. A wavelength varying functional part 35 sets a wavelength of the optical signal according to the wavelength varying request. The wavelength multiplexing and demultiplexing filter 38 includes a bit rate (band) dependent wavelength multiplexing and demultiplexing functional part 39.

A link connectivity verification message to recognize a physical link connection state is transmitted from the WDM to the PXC on a C-plane. The PXC transmits a link connectivity verification ACK message including information representing a physical link connection state, and the WDM transmits a cross-connect instruction message to cross-connect a transmission side and a reception side of a port (port 1) of the PXC. Probe light transmitted from the port (port a) of the WDM is turned back by a cross-connect of the port (port 1) of the PXC. The WDM receives the probe light to verify a link connectivity.
