Abstract: An optical wavelength multiplexing device includes: a wavelength selective switch including a first input port for receiving an optical signal, a second input port for receiving a monitoring signal, output ports for outputting the optical signal or the monitoring signal, and an adjustment unit that adjusts a level of the optical signal or the monitoring signal at one of the output ports; a measurement unit that measures an output level of the monitoring signal at one of the output ports; and a control unit that specifies an unused output port of the output ports as a monitoring target port; sets a specific adjustment amount to the monitoring target port; outputs the monitoring signal to the monitoring target port; and determines whether the monitoring target port has an abnormality, based on the output level at the monitoring target port and an estimated output level at the monitoring target port.

Abstract: An optical module includes an optical modulator that performs optical modulation of transmission data, an optical modulator controller that controls the optical modulator, a memory that stores corresponding relationships between temperatures and set data with which modulation of the optical modulator is to be performed at an operating point voltage, a temperature sensor that measures a temperature in the optical module; and a setting circuit that refers the memory and searches for set data corresponding to measured temperature, and set the set data to the optical modulator controller.

Abstract: Each optical transmission device includes a detecting unit, a notifying unit, and a control unit. The detecting unit detects a value of the optical power of each of multiple wavelengths. The notifying unit notifies an optical transmission device at the upstream side of a control frame that includes the value and that includes information that indicates the execution state of the optical power control. The control unit calculates the adjustment level on the basis of the optical power of each of the wavelengths detected by the detecting unit. Furthermore, when the information included in the control frame sent from an optical transmission device at the downstream side indicates that the optical power control is being stopped, the control unit calculates the adjustment level on the basis of the value included in the control frame and executes optical power control by setting the calculated adjustment level to the optical device.
