Abstract

A dispersion compensating fiber whose chromatic dispersion is positive and a negative dispersion compensating fiber whose chromatic dispersion is negative are prepared, and division-multiplexed optical signals, after being guided to either dispersion compensating fiber to once shift the whole wavelength band to positivity or negativity, are subjected to fine adjustment with a dispersion compensating fiber of a reverse sign.
