Abstract
In an optical transmission system including a plurality of optical transmitting units and a relay device, the plurality of optical transmitting units include a frequency modulation conversion unit that converts an input signal into a frequency modulation signal through frequency modulation conversion processing, a multiplexing unit that multiplexes monitoring signals with different frequencies with the frequency modulation signal, and an optical modulation unit that converts the frequency modulation signal that is an electric signal in which the monitoring signals are multiplexed into optical signals having different wavelengths, and the relay device includes a photoelectric conversion unit that acquires a combined signal obtained by combining optical signals having different wavelengths from each other and converts the combined signal into an electric signal, and a measuring unit that measures transmission quality of the plurality of monitoring signals included in the electric signal.
