Abstract
An optical transmission apparatus includes: a wavelength selecting switch, including an input port and an output port having more ports than the input port, configured to perform an adjustment of a level of an optical signal from the input port to the output port; a first monitor configured to monitor the level of the optical signal at the input port unit; a second monitor configured to monitor the level of the optical signal at the output port unit; and a controller configured to control the wavelength selecting switch wherein the controller: calculates a virtual output value for the output port unit based on a first monitor result from the first monitoring unit, a second monitor result from the second monitoring unit, and a current adjustment value for the adjustment function; calculates a new adjustment value based on the virtual output value; and sets the new adjustment value to the adjustment.
