  • Article: Construction of 2n extended prime codes with cross-correlation constraint of one
    J.-G. Zhang, W.C. Kwong, S. Mann
    [show abstract] [hide abstract]
    ABSTRACT: The authors construct a new family of 2<sup>n</sup> codes, called 2<sup>n</sup> extended prime codes, for all-optical code-division multiple access (AOCDMA) applications. Such 2<sup>n</sup> codes are obtained by “extending” prime codes. As a result, the cross-correlation constraint of the new codes is equal to one, as opposed to two in the original prime codes or 2<sup>n</sup> prime codes. Moreover the bit error rate (BER) of AOCDMA systems using the new codes is analysed. It is shown that the new codes can support a larger number of active users than the 2<sup>n</sup> prime codes for a given BER

  • Article: Performance improvement of fibre-optic code-division multiple-access systems by using error-correction codes
    J.-G. Zhang
    [show abstract] [hide abstract]
    ABSTRACT: In code-division multiple-access (CDMA) systems using all-optical signal processing, the optical multiple-access interference (OMAI) degrades the system performance and can ultimately limit the number of active users. To reduce the effect of OMAI, error-correction codes are used in both asynchronous and synchronous fibre-optic CDMA systems. It is shown that the use of asymmetric error-correction binary block codes can not only effectively reduce the bit-error rate, but also increase the maximum number of active users in a constant-bandwidth network more efficiently than using symmetric error-correction binary block codes. Therefore, this permits implementation of a cost-effective fibre-optic CDMA network

  • Article: All-optical code-division multiple-access applications: 2(n) extended-prime codes.
    J G Zhang, W C Kwong, S Mann
    [show abstract] [hide abstract]
    ABSTRACT: A new family of 2(n) codes, called 2(n) extended-prime codes, is proposed for all-optical code-division multiple-access networks. Such 2(n) codes are derived from so-called extended-prime codes so that their cross-correlation functions are not greater than 1, as opposed to 2 for recently proposed 2(n) prime codes. As a result, a larger number of active users can now be supported by the new codes for a given bit-error rate than can be by 2(n) prime codes, while power-efficient, waveguide-integrable all-serial coding and correlating configurations proposed for the 2(n) prime codes can still be employed.

  • Article: Effective design of optical code-division multiple access networks by using the modified prime code
    J.-G. Zhang, W.C. Kwong
    [show abstract] [hide abstract]
    ABSTRACT: In optical code-division multiple access (OCDMA) networks using a well-known prime code, the code weight w is always fixed to the maximum number of users M (i.e. the code size). When M becomes very large the resulting cost and optical power losses of OCDMA encoder/decoder can be very high. To overcome this difficulty, an efficient design is presented for OCDMA networks, which is based on the modified prime (MPR) codes. The use of MPR codes can maintain the fixed w for a given bit error rate and any M. While MPR codes still preserve the same cross-correlation constraint as prime codes

  • Article: Address codes for use in all-optical CDMA systems
    J.-G. Zhang
    [show abstract] [hide abstract]
    ABSTRACT: The authors present new address codes for all-optical code division multiple access (CDMA) systems. The use of the proposed code can strictly guarantee the peaks of all the cross-correlation functions and all the sidelobes of any auto-correlation function to be `l' in such applications as purely asynchronous data transmission and ultrafast switching. The theory of the new codes is also reported

  • Article: 2n prime-sequence code and its optical CDMA coding architecture
    W.C. Kwong, J.-G. Zhang, G.-C. Yang
    [show abstract] [hide abstract]
    ABSTRACT: A special class of 2<sup>n</sup> code, derived from the well-known prime-sequence code, for optical code-division multiple-access (CDMA) is constructed. A hybrid coding architecture, comprising a `modified' tunable prime encoder and 2<sup>n</sup> decoder, is proposed and particularly suitable for waveguide implementation for the future optical CDMA networks, with potentially 3 dB ideal power loss
