Performance analysis of electronic code division multiple access based virtual private networks over passive optical networks

A solution for implementing multiple secure virtual private networks over a passive optical network using electronic code division multiple access is proposed and experimentally demonstrated. The multiple virtual private networking capability is experimentally demonstrated with 40 Mb/s data multiplexed with a 640 Mb/s electronic code that is unique to each of the virtual private networks in the passive optical network, and the transmission of the electronically coded data is carried out using Fabry-Perot laser diodes. A theoretical scalability analysis for electronic code division multiple access based virtual private networks over a passive optical network is also carried out to identify the performance limits of the scheme. Several sources of noise such as optical beat interference and multiple access interference that are present in the receiver are considered with different operating system parameters such as transmitted optical power, spectral width of the broadband optical source, and processing gain to study the scalability of the network.     

Fast frequency modulation optical code division multiple access communication system

An optical fast frequency modulation code division multiple access communication system is proposed. In this system, an electrically controlled tunable optical filter (TOF) is used to encode the modulated broadband light source. The code depends on the function set to the controller. Two-dimensional code named functional code is also proposed based on a shifted sine function. The function defines the dynamic coding pattern of the central wavelength of the transmitted narrowband optical signal. Thus, the system will allow for an easy reconfiguration of the transmitter without the need for sophisticated encoder. At the receiver, a synchronized TOF with the same function is used as a decoder. The performance of this system is shown to be better compared with a fast frequency hopping and a spectral amplitude coding systems.     

SIR optimization in wavelength-hopping time spreading optical code routed networks

In this work, we investigate the performance of a distributed power control algorithm (DPCA) for signal-to-interference (SIR) optimization in wavelength-hopping time spreading code routed networks. These networks are based on 2D codes (time/wavelength) to establish end-to-end optical code paths (OCPs). The SIR model considers multiple access interference (MAI) between OCPs and amplified spontaneous emission (ASE) at cascaded amplified spans. The utilization of power control has a significant impact on both performance and capacity of practical optical networks. The DPCA can be effectively implemented in each node because uses only local parameters or measurements.     

A novel scheme of two-dimension time-stacked wavelength-time optical code label for optical packet switching network

A novel scheme of time-stacked optical code label based on optical code division multiple (OCDM) technique for optical packet switching network is proposed, in which two-dimensional wavelength-time OCDM code is used as the optical label. Packet loss rate and system characteristic based on the proposed scheme are studied. Results show that less packet loss rate of proposed scheme can be achieved as compared with that of one-dimension time-stacked optical code label system.     

A novel all-optical label processing based on multiple optical orthogonal codes sequences for optical packet switching networks

This paper proposes an all-optical label processing scheme that uses the multiple optical orthogonal codes sequences (MOOCS)-based optical label for optical packet switching (OPS) (MOOCS-OPS) networks. In this scheme, each MOOCS is a permutation or combination of the multiple optical orthogonal codes (MOOC) selected from the multiple-groups optical orthogonal codes (MGOOC). Following a comparison of different optical label processing (OLP) schemes, the principles of MOOCS-OPS network are given and analyzed. Firstly, theoretical analyses are used to prove that MOOCS is able to greatly enlarge the number of available optical labels when compared to the previous single optical orthogonal code (SOOC) for OPS (SOOC-OPS) network. Then, the key units of the MOOCS-based optical label packets, including optical packet generation, optical label erasing, optical label extraction and optical label rewriting etc., are given and studied. These results are used to verify that the proposed MOOCS-OPS scheme is feasible.
