Abstract
An optical transmission apparatus includes: a plurality of optical transmitters configured to transmit optical signals having variable wavelengths, respectively; a multiplexer configured to wavelength-multiplex the optical signals transmitted from the plurality of optical transmitters in a transmission band of an optical device through which the optical signals is transmitted; and a controller configured to control, in response to nonexistence of an optical signal having a second wavelength adjacent to a first wavelength closest to an outer edge of the transmission band in the optical signals, an optical transmitter corresponding to the first wavelength so as to shift the first wavelength in a direction toward the second wavelength.
