Open Access research with a European policy impact...

The Strathprints institutional repository is a digital archive of University of Strathclyde's Open Access research outputs. Strathprints provides access to thousands of Open Access research papers by Strathclyde researchers, including by researchers from the European Policies Research Centre (EPRC).

EPRC is a leading institute in Europe for comparative research on public policy, with a particular focus on regional development policies. Spanning 30 European countries, EPRC research programmes have a strong emphasis on applied research and knowledge exchange, including the provision of policy advice to EU institutions and national and sub-national government authorities throughout Europe.

Abstract

A detailed analysis of the scalability of two-dimensional optical codes is presented and two network deployment architectures for optical code division multiple access (OCDMA) are discussed. We present the architecture and or a highly scalable, 2.5 Gb/s per user code design for OCDMA system. The system is scalable to 100 potential and more than 10 simultaneous users, each with BER of less than 10(-9). The system architecture uses fast wavelength-hopping, time-spreading codes. Unlike phase sensitive coherent OCDAM systems, this architecture utilizes standard on-off-keyed optical pulses allocated in the time and wavelength domains. This incoherent OCDMA approach is compatible with existing WDM optical networks and utilizes off-the-shelf components. We discuss a novel optical subsystems design for encoders and decoders that enable the realization of a highly scalable incoherent OCDMA system with rapid reconfigurability. We demonstrate the operation of 4 simultaneous users operating at OC-48 (similar to 2.5 Gbit/s) with a power penalty of < 0.5dB and the reduction of mulliple-access interference using ultra-fast all-optical sampling with newly proposed TOAD-based OCDMA receiver.
