Over the past fifty years, telecommunications has transformed, in an unprecedented manner,
the way we live, work and communicate. For telecommunications, fixed networks are the one …

Feature Issue on Optical Code Division Multiple Access I present an in-depth review of the
trends and the directions taken by researchers worldwide in optical code-division multiple …

Optical code-division multiple access (OCDMA) is an interesting subject of research
because of its potential to support asynchronous, bursty communications. OCDMA has been …

In this paper, we have studied the probability of error of optical code division multiple access
(OCDMA) system using 2-D optical codes, namely prime hop and hybrid codes with a …

This paper presents the spectral efficiency of frequency-encoded (FE) optical code-division
multiple-access (OCDMA) systems with incoherent sources. The spectral efficiency of five …

This paper describes optical multiplexing technologies expected to be applied to access-
area networks. First, these technologies are broadly categorized into wavelength-division …

The link layer of an optical direct-detection code-division multiple-access (CDMA) packet
network is considered. Two different protocols that need pretransmission coordination are …

In direct sequence-optical code division multiplexing access (DS-OCDMA) system networks,
data rate and data spreading technique involved in such systems require a high chip rate …

We investigate the benefits of employing a saturated semiconductor optical amplifier (SOA)
to reduce the optical noise in an incoherent light optical code division multiple access …

We present compact integrable architectures to perform the discrete wavelet transform
(DWT) and the wavelet packet (WP) decomposition of an optical digital signal, and we show …
