In a wavelength locking method, and in an apparatus and a network system using the method, a wavelength of a tunable filter is caused to track a wavelength of light from a light source by controlling a control signal by controlling an operation condition of the tunable filter in a feedback control system of a wavelength locking system. According to the method, an error signal relevant to a deviation of the wavelength of the tunable filter from the wavelength of the light source is generated, an operation signal for feedback control of the wavelength locking system is generated by using the error signal, the operation signal is detected, and a bias component of the control signal is corrected or renewed based on the detected operation signal such that an absolute value of the operation signal does not exceed a predetermined value. <IMAGE> |
