Abstract

An optical code-division multiple access (OCDMA) over wavelength-division multiplexing (WDM) system could be one promising solution to the symmetric Gigabit access network with high spectral efficiency, cost effective, good flexibility and enhanced security. A cost-effective OCDMA/WDM system using a single multi-port en/decoder at an optical line terminal (our) and superstructured fiber Bragg grating (SSFBG) encoder/decoders at each optical network unit (ONU) in an optical network has been proposed and demonstrated. In this paper, we prepare 16-chip, 16-level phase-shifted SSFBG encoder/decoders and develop the full-asynchromms 10 Gigabit Ethernet (10 GbE) interface OCDMA prototype for the first time. Field trials of duplex, fully-asynchronous, 10 Gbps x 8-user DPSK-OCDMA system over 100 km using hybrid multi-port and SSFBG encoder/decoder tire demonstrated.
