OCDMA Systems and the Enabling Technologies

OCDMA system are reviewed, particularly focusing on asynchronous coherent technology. Key techniques enabling asynchronous coherent OCDMA are discussed, including en/decoding techniques such as ultra-long superstructured FBG and multi-port encoder/decoder; differential-phase-shift-keying (DPSK) modulation, and forward-error-correction and M-ary OCDM will be also introduced aiming at the transmission security enhancement.
