An optical transmitter 11 outputs an optical signal, and an optical booster amplifier 12 amplifies the optical signal and sends the amplified optical signal to an optical fiber 101 forming an optical transmission line. When detecting an optical signal fluctuation factor, an optical transmitter control part 13 outputs a light surge warning signal 111 prior to an optical signal fluctuation, and a gain control part 14 responds to the light surge warning signal 111 to decrease the gain of the optical booster amplifier 12 down to a level where no light surge occurs.
