Cardinality Enhancement of SAC-OCDMA Systems Using New Diagonal Double Weight Code

Optical code division multiple access (OCDMA) provides another dimension to multiple access systems, in which each user is assigned a unique code. This allows each subscriber to simultaneously access the medium without any contention. However, simultaneous access of multiple users introduce multiple access interference (MAI) which primarily deteriorates the performance of OCDMA systems. This paper proposes a new code called diagonal double weight (DDW) code to elevate the performance and cardinality of spectral amplitude coding (SAC) OCDMA systems. Performance of our proposed code is evaluated using comprehensive analytical analysis followed by simulation analysis. Examination of bit error rate shows that DDW code along with single photodiode detection technique provides efficient performance, with added benefits of simplified design, large cardinality and ease of implementation.

Analysis of noise suppression for OCDMA systems with fixed in-phase cross-correlation codes and single O/E converter

Performance of the non-coherent spectral amplitude coding optical code division multiple access (SAC-OCDMA) systems is primarily degraded by the presence of noise sources generated during the process of optical-to-electrical (O/E) conversion at the receiving photodiode (PD). Phase induced intensity noise (PIIN) is generated by limitations in the coding scheme that leads to the mixing of adjacent spectrum's commonly known as multiple access interference (MAI). While, shot and thermal noise sources are generated at PD during the conversion of signal from O/E domain for further processing. This paper investigates and compares the performance of two detection techniques with reference to the received power units and suppression of noise sources while recovering and decoding enhanced multi diagonal (EMD) code. Both techniques namely spectral direct detection (SDD) and single PD detection (SPD) use one PD for O/E conversion to reduce the effect of shot and thermal noise. Numerical analysis using Gaussian approximation shows that SPD technique provides better performance for an acceptable bit error rate (BER) of 10−9 as compared with SDD technique, due to maximum recovery of power units in the received spectrum. Simulation analysis through a highly recognized software called Optisystem also validates the mathematical formalism and shows the EMD and SPD based SAC-OCDMA system is able to support 64 subscribers communication simultaneously beyond 1 Gbps of data while −10 dBm power is maintained at the receiving PD.

Modified Single Photo-diode (MSPD) Detection Technique for SAC-OCDMA System

AbstractIn this paper, a new detection technique called modified single photo-diode (MSPD) detection for SAC-OCDMA system is proposed. The proposed system based on the single photo-diode (SPD) detection technique. The new detection technique is proposed to overcome the limitation of phase-induced intensity noise (PIIN) in SPD detection technique. However, the proposed detection is based on an optical hard limiter (OHL) followed by a SPD and a low-pass filter (LPF) in order to suppress the phase intensity noise (PIIN) at the receiver side. The results show that the MSPD detection based on OHL has a good performance even when the transmission distance is long, which is different from the case of SPD detection technique. Therefore, the MSPD detection technique is shown to be effective to improve the bit error rate (BER<10

Performance Enhancement of SPD Technique in SAC-OCDMA Systems

This paper presents single photodiode as an effective technique for eradicating the effects of PIIN and MAI by cancelling interference effects in the optical domain in spectral amplitude coding optical code- division multiple-access(SAC-OCDMA)systems. Single photodiode detection(SPD) technique proves to be a better candidate than MODIFIED-AND subtraction detection in terms of BER performance. Appreciable performance can be obtained with SPD technique by using optical hard limiter.

Reducing BER of spectral-amplitude coding optical code-division multiple-access systems by single photodiode detection technique

In this paper, we present a single photodiode detection (SPD) technique for spectral-amplitude coding optical code-division multiple-access (SAC-OCDMA) systems. The proposed technique eliminates both phase-induced intensity noise (PIIN) and multiple-access interference (MAI) in the optical domain. Analytical results show that for 35 simultaneous users transmitting at data rate of 622 Mbps, the bit-error rate (BER) = 1.4×10−28 for SPD technique is much better compared to 9.3×10−6 and 9.6×10−3 for the modified-AND as well as the AND detection techniques, respectively. Moreover, we verified the improved performance afforded by the proposed technique using data transmission simulations.

Improving spectral efficiency of SAC-OCDMA systems by SPD scheme

This letter presents a single photodiode detection (SPD) as an effective technique for eradicating both multiple-access interference (MAI) and phase-induced intensity noise (PIIN) in spectral amplitude coding optical code-division multiple-access (SAC-OCDMA) systems. Mathematical analysis and simulation experiments are used to investigate the spectral efficiency (SE) of SAC-OCDMA systems utilizing different detection techniques. Results show that the SPD technique significantly enhances the SE compared to AND as well as modified-AND subtraction detections.
