Abstract:
[Problem] To provide an optical transmission/reception device, an optical communication system, an optical communication method, and a program which are capable of securing the confidentiality of information included in an optical signal even when the optical signal is transferred to a device that is not an original transmission destination device. [Solution] This optical transmission/reception device is provided with: a wave separation unit for receiving a wavelength-multiplexed optical signal and separating the same into a plurality of optical signals; a plurality of reception units for receiving each of the plurality of optical signals separated by the wave separation unit; a plurality of output units for outputting optical signals differing in wavelength from each other; a control unit for requesting, in response to the inclusion in the received wavelength-multiplexed optical signal of an optical signal to which a prescribed process has been applied, that a prescribed change be applied to the optical signal outputted by at least one of the plurality of output units; and a wave combining unit for combining the plurality of optical signals outputted from the plurality of output units and outputting the combined signal.

Claim (Index 17):
An optical communication system comprising:\n an optical transmission device configured to output a multiplexed optical signal; and an optical reception device configured to receive the multiplexed optical signal, wherein the optical transmission device comprises:\n an output unit configured to output an optical signal; \n a control unit configured to send a processing request to the output units; and \n a multiplexing unit configured to output the multiplexed optical signal including the optical signal, wherein\n the output unit further configured to, in response to the processing request from the control unit, apply a predetermined change to the optical transmission signal.
