    摘要: According to an aspect of an embodiment, a method of spectrum defragmentation in an optical network may include assigning an optical signal within an optical network to a first frequency slot that spans a first portion of an optical spectrum of the optical network. The method may also include constructing a frequency slot dependency map based on the assignation of the optical signal to the frequency slot. The method may also include reassigning, as a result of an optical signal departure event, the optical signal to a second frequency slot based on the frequency slot dependency map. The second frequency slot may span a second portion of the optical spectrum of the optical network.

    摘要: An optical network for reassigning a carrier wavelength of an optical signal may include first and second optical nodes. The first optical node may be configured to transmit an optical signal along an optical path. The first optical node may also be configured to tune a carrier wavelength of the optical signal from a first wavelength to a second wavelength, according to a continuous function, to reassign the carrier wavelength of the optical signal. The second optical node may be configured to receive the optical signal and may include a feedback loop configured to adjust a wavelength of a reference optical signal to approximate the carrier wavelength of the optical signal.
