Abstract
In two-dimensional (2D) time-spreading/wavelength-hopping optical code division multiple access (OCDMA) systems, employing less coherent broadband optical pulse sources allows lower electrical operating rate and better system performance. An optical gate based scheme for generating weakly coherent (approximately incoherent) broadband optical pulses was proposed and experimentally demonstrated. In this scheme, the terahertz optical asymmetric demultiplexer, together with a coherent narrowband control pulse source, turns an incoherent broadband continuous-wave (CW) light source into the required pulse source.
