Abstract :
A novel structure that encodes and decodes very high speed optical code division multiple access (OCDMA) signals is proposed. This scheme is based on the analogy between the distributed amplifier and the transversal filter. By simple adjustments, the proposed device acts as a high-speed (>40 GChip/s) encoder (transmitter) or correlator (receiver). Theoretical analysis and potential implementation using MMIC HEMT foundry process are presented
