Abstract
An optical communication system includes an optical transmitter, a plurality of optical receivers, and a splitter that splits light transmitted by the optical transmitter to the plurality of optical receivers. The optical transmitter includes a variable-wavelength light source capable of transmitting light of a first wavelength and light of a third wavelength between the first wavelength and a second wavelength. A first optical receiver of the plurality of optical receivers includes a first optical filter having a first transmission band including the first and third wavelengths, and a first receiving unit that receives light having passed through the first optical filter. A second optical receiver of the plurality of optical receivers includes a second optical filter having a second transmission band including the second and third wavelengths, and a second receiving unit that receives light having passed through the second optical filter.
