Abstract

Provided are a monitoring device, a monitoring method, and an optical transmission system which are adapted for an increase in the number of cores of a multi-core optical fiber transmission path and suitable for crosstalk monitoring. The monitoring device monitors a multi-core optical fiber transmission path having a plurality of use cores and at least one or more non-use cores, and comprises: an applying means for applying, at a start point of the multi-core optical fiber transmission path, dithering to signal light propagating in the use cores; a monitoring means for monitoring the power of the non-use cores at an input side of a relay in the multi-core optical fiber transmission path; and a separating means for separating a monitoring result from the monitoring means into power components from the plurality of use cores.
