Abstract
A network element comprises a light source generating an optical signal having a USP with a USP bandwidth, an ASE source generating ASE noise, a WSS partitioning the ASE noise into a series of ASE passbands comprising a default bandwidth, an allocated start frequency, and an allocated end frequency, a processor and a memory storing instructions to: mark the ASE passband for deactivation or adjustment based on a comparison of spectral slices of the USP and spectral slices of each ASE passband such that for fully overlapping set of spectral slices the respective ASE is marked for deactivation and for partially overlapping sets of spectral slices, the respective ASE is marked for adjustment so long as a minimum slice threshold is met, otherwise the respective ASE is marked for deactivation; deactivate or adjust the ASE passbands based on their respective marking; and ramp the one or more user signal passband.
