Abstract :
The BER performance of a 2D λ-t OCDMA system is compared experimentally with optimum sampling (global clock) and non-optimum sampling (recovered clock from an OCDMA receiver). The power and BER penalties of the receiver are quantified, and the impact of interferers on its performance is determined.
