Abstract

Wavelength-time encoding/decoding for optical CDMA systems is evaluated using NRZ modulation at 10 Gbit/s. Commercial available devices are used for implementation. Experimental results are presented for the channel both in the absence and in the presence of multi-access interference.

Demonstration of Record BER and Number of Users for Optical CDMA (O-CDMA), with Implications to Secure Communications

Antonio J. Mendez, V. J. Hernandez, C. V. Bennett +2 more

We demonstrate a BER of 10{sup -11} for 16 simultaneous users, using wavelength/time O-CDMA. We show the extent to which severe multi-access interference can be used to mask and/or degrade the signal from an intruder.

Non-uniform spectral encoding for enhanced multi-user performance in optical CDMA networks

Yixue Du, S. J. Ben Yoo, Zhi Jun Ding

We propose a novel non-uniform spectral coding scheme in an optical-CDMA system that utilizes spectral phase encoded time-spreading (SPECTS). The new method achieves lower multi-user-interference and twice network capacity for Gaussian spectral shape optical pulses

Measurements of eavesdropping in a wavelength/time optical CDMA (O-CDMA) system, with data confidentiality implications

Antonio J. Mendez, Vincent J. Hernandez, Corey V. Bennett +2 more

We report measurements on what an eavesdropper "sees" when tapping into a wavelength/time O-CDMA system in which 16 of 32 codes are "lit". Severe multi-access interference (MAI) provides some data confidentiality.

Novel optical CDMA platform for avionics applications

Ivan Glesk, Paul R. Prucnal

We designed, built, and demonstrated a highly scalable incoherent Optical CDMA testbed under DARPA contract as a novel platform for testing different avionics applications which will be characterized by Lockheed Martin. It enables users to communicate with each other at the OC-24 rate of ~1.25 Gbit/sec per user with raw BER of less than 10-12. The system architecture uses (3,11) fast wavelength-hopping, time-spreading prime codes with a chip size of 73 ps utilizing standard on-off-keyed picosecond optical pulses allocated in the time and wavelength domains. A novel design of optical encoders and decoders enables the realization of a secure connectivity approaching a so called "one-time-pad" security. The testbed is also designed to conduct eavesdropping studies among testbed users.
