Abstract

A transmission apparatus includes a signal power detector configured to detect signal power of a wavelength-multiplexed optical signal to be transmitted to a transmission line, a variable optical attenuator configured to attenuate the wavelength-multiplexed optical signal, and a processor configured to control an attenuation amount of the variable optical attenuator according to the signal power and whether a Raman amplifier in which pumping light is inputted to the transmission line exists.
