  • Abstract
    An experimental fiber optic local area network utilizing code division multiple access (CDMA) and fiber optic delay-line signal processing is reported. The throughput-delay characteristics are compared to ALOHA and CSMA/CD. Since CDMA allows many users to access the network simultaneously, it can achieve higher throughput with no delay.
