COMMUNICATION SYSTEM, MEASURING APPARATUS, TRANSMITTING APPARATUS, AND MEASUREMENT METHOD

摘要

A communication system including: a transmission apparatus configured to modulate a first light by using a first signal to be transferred and a second signal having a frequency different from a frequency of the first signal so as to generate a first optical signal, modulate a second light by using a third signal to be transferred and a fourth signal having a frequency different from a frequency of the third signal so as to generate a second optical signal, polarization-multiplex the first optical signal and the second optical signal, and transmit a polarization-multiplexed optical signal in which the first optical signal and the second optical signal are polarization-multiplexed, each of the first light and the second light being polarized; and a measuring apparatus configured to measure powers of the second signal and the fourth signal which are included in the polarization-multiplexed optical signal transmitted from the transmission apparatus.
