Abstract :
This paper proposes a heuristics assignment algorithm called waveband assignment algorithm to minimize fragment (WA-MF), which tries to fill the new arriving traffic requests by preference into the partly used waveband. The simulation results show that it can reduce the port counts and improve the resource utilization.
