Abstract

An all-optical code-division multiple access (CDMA) network is presented which uses optical phase information to encode and decode transmitted data from a low-coherence source, using simple, compact, reconfigurable optical delay networks. The use of a master encoding network to provide a reference for the system is demonstrated experimentally, and examples of phase codes ensuring minimum interference between users are given.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">&gt;</ETX>
