On an acousto-optical add/drop multiplexer to whose input the wavelength-division multiplex signal is applied, a plurality of surface acoustic waves are excited at specific frequencies and in each case a portion of the light power is separated from wavelength-division multiplex channels at an optical frequency which is governed by the frequency of such a surface acoustic wave; a superheterodyne receiver (HE), to whose input side the separated light power elements with one polarization are applied as well as light power elements with another polarization which are output from the non-separated elements of the wavelength-division multiplex signal emits an output signal which corresponds to the light power levels which are transmitted in a channel-specific manner in the individual wavelength-division multiplex channels, with whose aid a regulating device in each case separately readjusts the light power transmitted in the individual wavelength-division multiplex channels to a predetermined value. |
