Abstract
Optical code division multiple access (OCDMA) can enhance the physical-layer security performance of optical fiber communication systems. In asynchronous coherent time-spreading OCDMA employing m sequence and Gold code, the reliability, capacity and physical-layer security of the system will degrade due to multiple access interference and beat noise. In order to enhance the physical-layer security and reliability of coherent OCDMA systems, a quasi-synchronous coherent time-spreading OCDMA wiretap channel is proposed in this paper. The influences of the extraction location, the extraction ratio, the number of active users on the physical-layer security are analyzed quantitatively. System performances are characterized by bit error rate, secrecy capacity as well as security leakage factor. The numerical results prove that the proposed scheme can improve the physical-layer security and reliability simultaneously.
