Noncoherent Spectral Optical CDMA System Using 1D Active Weight Two-Code Keying Codes

Abstract EN

We propose a new family of one-dimensional (1D) active weight two-code keying (TCK) in spectral amplitude coding (SAC) optical code division multiple access (OCDMA) networks.

We use encoding and decoding transfer functions to operate the 1D active weight TCK.

The proposed structure includes an optical line terminal (OLT) and optical network units (ONUs) to produce the encoding and decoding codes of the proposed OLT and ONUs, respectively.

The proposed ONU uses the modified cross-correlation to remove interferences from other simultaneous users, that is, the multiuser interference (MUI).

When the phase-induced intensity noise (PIIN) is the most important noise, the modified cross-correlation suppresses the PIIN.

In the numerical results, we find that the bit error rate (BER) for the proposed system using the 1D active weight TCK codes outperforms that for two other systems using the 1D M-Seq codes and 1D balanced incomplete block design (BIBD) codes.

The effective source power for the proposed system can achieve −10 dBm, which has less power than that for the other systems.
