Abstract A special architecture using a balance encoder and an on‐off‐keying (OOK) decoder is proposed for an optical code‐division multiplexing system. Different channels can use a common code to encode the zero bits. The constant interference of the system makes the decoder simpler and faster. The performance of the proposed system proves to be superior to that of the pure OOK system. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
