Abstract
An object of the present invention is to provide an optical transmission system capable of easily controlling a transmission capacity and an optical signal quality even if a MIMO equalizer is provided. The optical transmission system according to the present invention is provided with an N×M MIMO equalizer, includes receivers (N units) equal in number to the spatial multiplexing order L of an optical fiber, and changes the number M of the signal beams of light transmitted through the optical fiber in the range of the spatial multiplex order L or less. The adjustment of the number M of signal beams of light makes it possible to adjust a transmission capacity and a signal quality of the optical transmission system even after construction of the transmission line.
