Super-structured fiber Bragg gratings (SSFBGs) of s optical pulse time spreaders are provided with N unit FBGs disposed starting from an input/output end in the order of first to N-th unit FBGs, where s is a parameter less than or equal to a parameter N, a natural number. The unit FBGs are configured such that the reflectivities of the unit FBGs placed from one end to the center of the SSFBG formed in an optical fiber are monotonically increased, while the reflectivities of the unit FBGs placed from the center to the other end of the SSFBG are monotonically decreased. The chip pulses in a pulse train are given relative phases such that the relative phase of the first chip pulse is equal to zero, the relative phase of the second chip pulse is equal to a phase difference d1=2&pgr;{a+(n−1)/N}, . . . , and the relative phase of the N-th chip pulse is equal to (N−1)d1. The parameter a is any real number satisfying the condition of 0≦̸a<1.
