PURPOSE: To provide a communication method utilizing optical soliton and by which further abundant information can be transmitted and information transmission can be carried out stably as compared with a characteristic frequency communication and provide a communication system of the method. CONSTITUTION: Regarding a communication system in which optical solitons are sent in a transmitting path consisting of optical fibers and having dispersed properties and non-linearity and transmitted through the path; the communication system is provided with a phase modulating means 1 to modulate the phases of optical solitons corresponding to information signals, the transmitting path 2 to transmit the information signals, a phase detecting means 4 to detect the phases of optical solitons based on the initial phases of the optical solitons, and a demodulating means 5 to demodulate the information signals of the optical solitons transmitted from the phase detecting means. |
