Abstract
An optical transmission system including an optical transmission path for transmitting WDM signals multiplexed different wavelength optical signals, the WDM signals including different bit rate optical signals or different modulation format optical signals; a repeater arranged in the optical transmission path, the repeater including a chromatic dispersion compensation unit for compensating chromatic dispersion compensation for the WDM signals; and a network management system including processes of determining a dispersion compensation ratio indicating the ratio with respect to the dispersion compensation amount at which the residual dispersion of the WDM signals are zero after transmission via the optical transmission path, on the bases of the mixture ratio of different optical signals included in the WDM signals, and variably setting the dispersion compensation amount for the in-line repeater according to the dispersion compensation ratio.
