Disclosed in this application is a method for correcting the relation between a control signal for controlling a selecting wavelength of an optical filter and the selecting wavelength of the optical filter. In the present invention, the selecting wavelength of the optical filter is swept in a wavelength range comprising wavelengths of light of first and second wavelengths generated by optical frequency modulation, and the above correction is carried out based on a difference between values of the control signal when the light of the first and second wavelengths is selected. A wavelength difference is normally controlled with high accuracy between light of two wavelengths generated by optical frequency modulation, and the present invention thus involves performing the above correction based on the wavelength gap controlled with high accuracy. <IMAGE> |
