| 摘要 |
An optical transmission system is provided with an optical transmission apparatus, an optical reception apparatus, an optical transmission line redundantly configured with an active system optical transmission line and an standby system optical transmission line, an optical switch that switches an optical transmission line between the active system optical transmission line and the standby system optical transmission line, a variable dispersion compensator placed between the optical switch and the optical reception apparatus, a dispersion amount measuring unit that measures the dispersion amount of the standby system optical transmission line when the active system optical transmission line is being selected by the optical switch, a dispersion compensation amount setting unit that sets the amount of dispersion compensation to be applied to the standby system optical transmission line based on the measured dispersion amount of the standby system optical transmission line, and a control unit that controls, when the optical transmission line is switched from the active system optical transmission line to the standby system optical transmission line by the optical switch, the variable dispersion compensator so that the amount of dispersion compensation becomes the set amount of dispersion compensation.
