Abstract

This letter presents a high-capacity optical code-division multiple-access (O-CDMA) network testbed based on the spectral phase-encoded time-spreading technique. Two 10-Gb/s/user O-CDMA network architectures (time-slotted and time-slotted polarization multiplexed) are investigated. The first O-CDMA network testbed architecture utilizes eight encoders and a decoder to produce 16 users equally distributed in two time slots while the second architecture evenly distributes 32 users in two time slots and two polarizations. The 16-user testbed achieved error-free performance. The 32-user testbed obtained bit-error rates below 10-8 without using forward-error-correction techniques [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]
