Abstract
By connecting a plurality of VIPA type wavelength dispersion compensators, each compensating for wavelength dispersion of a different order by a plurality of optical circulators and sequentially inputting input light to each VIPA type wavelength dispersion compensator, light, even the higher-order wavelength dispersion of which is compensated for, is outputted as output light.
