Abstract

We compared the bit-error-rate (BER) and throughput performance of coherent time-spreading (TS) and spectral phase encoding (SPE) optical code division multiple access (OCDMA) systems. The results indicate that for the short input pulse (250–300 fs pulsewidth), SPE-OCDMA can in principle yield a substantial throughput advantage over TS-OCDMA systems.
