Abstract :
We develop a simulation platform for investigating the impact of component mismatch, caused by wavelength and/or time misalignments in the optical encoders/decoders or misbalance in the photodetectors, on the bit error rate (BER) system performance of 2D wavelength-time bipolar OCDMA systems
