Abstract

An optical transmission system includes: a first optical transmission device configured to transmit measurement light to an optical transmission line on a first direction; and a second optical transmission device configured, when an optical transmission characteristic is measured, to loop-back the measurement light received from the first optical transmission device through an optical transmission line on the first direction and to transmit the measurement light to the first optical transmission device through an optical transmission line on a second direction, wherein, when the optical transmission characteristic is measured, the first optical transmission device receives the measurement light loop-backed by the second optical transmission device and measures the optical transmission characteristic between the first optical transmission device and the second optical transmission device.
