Abstract
A cost-effective hybrid wavelength division multiplexing (WDM), optical code division multiple access (OCDMA)
scheme by sharing a single multiport encoder in a central office and using tunable decoders in an optical network
unit has been proposed and demonstrated in a field trial. A 111-km error-free field transmission of asynchronous
3-WDM × 10-OCDMA × 10.71 Gb/s/user has been achieved with differential phase-shift keying for data modulation
and balanced detection. Forward-error-correction and optical-thresholding techniques were not used in the
experiment.
