Spectral-Phase Encoded Optical CDMA Using Coherent Self-Homodyne Detection
05 October 2015
A spectral-phase encoded OCDMA system is demonstrated in a back-to-back optic fiber link. Code-division discrimination is successfully achieved using a self-homodyne technique at 500Mb/s channel data rate with a BER of 8.9x10-5 for two simultaneous users. OCIS codes: (060.1660) Coherent communications; (140.4050) Mode-locked lasers; (060.2330) Fiber optics communications.
