Abstract :
We experimentally demonstrate a flexible electronic compensator for group velocity dispersion induced time skewing in multi-wavelength optical CDMA systems. The compensator uses a distributed transversal filter already proposed in the context of optical communications. Results show improvement in the ability to detect the autocorrelation peak in presence of multi-access interference.
