Abstract

Provided herein are a planar optical circuit and optical transmission system in which signal light power can be adjusted with respect to signal light and light that is different from the wavelength band of the signal light can be maintained satisfactorily. The planar optical circuit 1 is composed of a filter 10 that can cause loss of variable wavelength dependence to signal light of a signal light wavelength band such that signal light input from a signal light input end 111 is caused to have loss at given wavelength dependent loss by filter 10 and is output from signal light output end 112.
