| Abstract | |
In this work we investigate the effects of multiple access interference (MAI) and polarization mode dispersion (PMD) in optical code division multiplexing (OCDM) lightpaths. These paths are determined by the data encoding with non-coherent optical orthogonal codes (OOC), using a sequence inversion keying (SIK) optical correlator system. Our results show the impact of MAI effects and PMD constraint on the packet error rate, which depends on OOC parameters like weight and length. These parameters in turn depend on MAI and PMD effects. The results obtained can be used as input parameters for the design of OOC in virtual code/ wavelength path (VOCP/ VWP) routed networks. (AU) | |
