Abstract
A characteristics estimation device estimates characteristics of an optical fiber transmission line in an optical transmission system in which an optical signal is transmitted from first node to second node via the optical fiber transmission line. The characteristics estimation device includes a processor. The processor generates, based on electric field information indicating an electric field of the optical signal received by the second node via the optical fiber transmission line, a power profile indicating a relationship between power of the optical signal and dispersion amount corresponding to a transmission distance from the first node or the second node. The processor detects a span forming the optical fiber transmission line by using the power profile. The processor calculates, for the detected span, a dispersion coefficient of the optical fiber transmission line by dividing the dispersion amount estimated based on the power profile by a corresponding span length.
