In an optical transmission system in which an optical main signal and a monitoring control optical signal are wavelength-multiplexed and transmitted from a transmitter and the optical signal is directly amplified by a repeater and transmitted, low frequency pulse signals which are synchronized with the respective optical main signal and monitoring control signal are multiplexed with each others, a distance of a transmission section is specified by a phase difference between the low frequency pulse signals according to a difference in propagation rate of a transmission line due to a difference of wavelength between the optical main signal and the monitoring control signal and the optimal dispersion compensation is made possible even when a required dispersion compensation is changed due to a change of the transmission line by switching the optical transmission line to a DCF having an optimal amount of dispersion compensation.
