Abstract
A tunable dispersion compensation device includes a plurality of tunable dispersion compensators coupled in series, a controller configured to control an amount of chromatic dispersion to be set in each of the plurality of tunable dispersion compensators, and a table including a correspondence relationship between an amount of chromatic dispersion and a wavelength band, for each of the plurality of tunable dispersion compensators, wherein the controller decides an amount of chromatic dispersion to be set in each of the plurality of tunable dispersion compensators, based on a total amount of chromatic dispersion desired for the plurality of tunable dispersion compensators and the correspondence relationship included in the table so that a difference between bandwidths of a first tunable dispersion compensator having the widest wavelength band and a second tunable dispersion compensator having the narrowest wavelength band, among the plurality of tunable dispersion compensators, is within a given range.
