Abstract

The performances of time-domain optical code-division multiple access (OCDMA), using a Gaussian model for an optical amplified channel, are evaluated. Interest in spectral spreading to take advantage of low-cost optical filtering conditions is pointed out and the simultaneous effects of multiaccess interference (MAI) and optical noise on optical detection are demonstrated.
