Abstract
In order to obtain optical transmission equipment for wavelength division multiplexing for providing a small inter-wavelength deviation regardless of a change in an input level, an amplification band is divided with wavelengths at inflection points in a wavelength gain characteristic of an impurity-doped fiber. The equipment includes an optical filter unit and a optical gain adjusting unit. The optical filter unit obtains filter characteristics associated with wavelength gain characteristics for a plurality of input levels by changing a temperature thereof. The optical gain adjusting unit includes a wavelength gain characteristic shift filter having a Peltier element for controlling the temperate of the optical filter unit.
