A contents information delivery method for delivering a desired contents
information by transmitting an optical signal from a central station to
each of a plurality of user stations via a transmission line includes: a
first step (S1) of outputting an optical signal containing the contents
information as an optical signal having mutually different wavelengths
each assigned for the each user station in advance, in the central
station; a second step (S2) of transmitting an optical signal having a
plurality of wavelengths outputted via the transmission line in the first
step; and a third step (S3), in which each user station receives the
optical signal having the wavelength assigned from among the transmitted
optical signals, whereby, this simple configuration does not limit the
transmission rate, the coding format, or the like in an optical access
system, i.e., making it possible to cope with a super-large capacity.
