An optical module comprises a splitting element that splits light outputted from a light source; a first monitoring means that detects the intensity of light split by the splitting element; a polarization control means that switches the polarization state of light outputted from the splitting element based on a control signal; a filter means that accepts light outputted by the polarization control means as input, and whereof the characteristic changes depending on the polarization state of the input light; and a second monitoring means that detects the intensity of the light transmitted through the filter means.
