Spectrally efficient optical CDMA system based on chromatic dispersion for phase coding of individual spectral lines in the time domain

A WDM-compatible spectrally phase encoded-optical CDMA scheme based on second order dispersion is experimentally demonstrated. Results are given for a system transmitting at 10 Gbps within an 0.7 nm optical window using Hadamard codes.
