A WDM optical transmission system of the invention: detects an optical waveform of an intensity-modulated optical signal adjacent to a phase-modulated optical signal in a wavelength range; calculates a phase modulation drive waveform for canceling XPM of the phase-modulated optical signal affected by the adjacent intensity-modulated optical signal in the optical transmission path, based on the detected result; and additionally phase-modulates the phase-modulated optical signal synchronously with the adjacent intensity-modulated optical signal, according to the drive waveform, to thereby compensate the XPM. As a result, excellent transmission characteristics can be realized. |
