Abstract :
In this paper, we present the code and architecture designs for a scalable, reconfigurable, wavelength-time optical code division multiple access (O-CDMA) testbed. Our approach is compatible with existing WDM optical networks and utilizes off-the-shelf components. The operation of 4 simultaneous users at OC-48 (~2.5 Gbit/s) per user with BER < 10-9 is reported.
