Construction of optimal 2D variable-weight optical orthogonal codes for high-speed OCDMA networks

A new construction method of two-dimensional （2D） variable-weight optical orthogonal codes （VWOOCs） is proposed for high-speed optical code-division multiple-access （OCDMA） networks supporting multiple qualities of services （QoS）. The proposed codes have at most one-pulse per wavelength （AM-OPPW） property. An upper bound of the codeword cardinality of the 2D VWOOCs with AM-OPPW property is derived. It is then shown that the constructed codes have ideal correlation properties and optimal cardinality. Moreover, the code length and the bit-error-rate （BER） performance of the proposed codes are compared with those of the codes proposed previously.     

A new family of two-dimensional codes for optical CDMA systems

The design of a new family of two-dimensional single pulse per column codes for optical code division multiple access (OCDMA) networks is reported. The 1-D modified pseudo-noise codes have been known to be orthogonal and their generation and system design based on these codes is rather simple. But their performance is limited due to the bandwidth constraints if the code length increases. Hence, using these 1-D modified pseudo-noise codes, modified 2-D pseudo-noise matrix codes (MPMCs) are generated. The system performance is evaluated for two, three and four simultaneous users using the link with all the sources responsible for degradation included: attenuation, chromatic dispersion, non-linear refractive effects, non-linear scattering and four-wave mixing. The effect of the non-linear and lossy dispersive medium over the system performance is shown by plotting the BER with respect to the link length for the systems designed using encoders/decoders base on 1-D modified pseudo-noise codes and our MPMCs. The performance is compared for the two types of codes by finding the crosstalk due to interfering users simultaneously operating in the network.     

A high efficiency construction method of multilength optical orthogonal codes with correlation constraint two for OCDMA multimedia network

In order to construct multilength optical orthogonal codes (ML OOCs) with correlation constraint 2 for multi-rate OCDMA passive optical networks, a high efficiency construction method is presented. The main idea is to construct high efficiency mapping sequences to map optimal short length OOCs with cross correlation 2 into long length OOCs with cross correlation 2. Fundamental of constructing high efficiency mapping sequence is derived, and the mapping sequences based on multiplication table of integer domain is examined. Simulations based on the method show that the cardinality of long length OOCs is just slightly lower than Johnson bound. Therefore, it has very high variable length efficiency.     

Ring-based PON supporting multiple optical private networks using OCDMA technique

This work is a novel attempt to provide local communications for multiple optical private networks (PNs) within ring-based passive optical network (PON). In order to improve network throughput performance, PNs traffic is decentralized from PON traffic let no extra traffic management into optical line terminal (OLT). To achieve multiple secure optical private networking over ring-based PON layout, optical code division multiple access (OCDMA) technique is applied. This technique leads to interconnect optical network units (ONUs) in the same PN sharing the same codeword while other PNs benefiting from different codewords. This scheme can be used in access networks to establish discrete communications between different sites in an enterprise or a university campus or even a residential accommodation. The proposed network architecture is then set up and its bit error rate performance is experimentally demonstrated. Finally, the network scalability and throughput performance of the proposed scheme are analyzed.     

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.     

Variable cross-correlation code construction for spectral amplitude coding optical CDMA networks

We present, for the first time, several aspects of incoherent optical code-division multiple access (OCDMA) codes, focusing on the flexible variable cross-correlation code allocation and its potential for future optical networks. We briefly present a new version of the Random Diagonal (RD) codes for Spectral-Amplitude Coding (SAC) OCDMA approaches. We then concentrate on the properties specific to such schemes allowing for its increased scalability and flexibility. The main coding properties are reviewed. The RD codes provide simple matrix constructions compared to the other SAC-OCDMA codes such as Hadamard, MQC and MFH codes. This code possesses such a numerous advantages, including the efficient and easy code construction, simple encoder/decoder design, existence for every natural number n, and variable in-phase cross-correlation and easy to implement using Fiber Bragg Gratings (FBGs). Finally, a new detection scheme called “NAND” detection is developed for the variable cross-correlation RD code.     

Integrated photonic decoder with complementary code processing and balanced detection for two-dimensional optical code division multiple access

We propose a novel integrated photonic decoder for two-dimensional (time spreading, wavelength hopping) optical code division multiple access. The decoder is composed of multiplexers-demultiplexers, variable delay lines, and a coupler, which processes complementary codes and utilizes balanced detection to reduce unwanted cross-correlation interference. We successfully carried out a 10 Gbit/s transmission that demonstrated its effectiveness.     

Design of double-weight code for synchronous OCDMA systems with power control

Double-weight optical code division multiple access(OCDMA) systems are proposed for studying differentiated quality-of-service transmission. Based on quadratic congruence code(QCC), we construct a one-dimensional double-weight code family, which can be well utilized in incoherent synchronous double-weight OCDMA networks. By introducing algebraic transformation to code sequences of QCC in level 1, we obtain multiple double-weight codes with cross-correlation 1. Under the same-bit-power assumption, the performance of low-weight codes can be significantly improved and is always superior to that of high-weight codes in double-weight OCDMA systems with power control. This property is contrary to previous conclusions under the same-chip-power assumption.     

Realization of 2-D OCDMA network using EDW code

The attraction towards two-dimensional optical code division multiple access (2D-OCDMA) systems has increased due to its potential in enhancing the performance of optical access networks and producing optical code-based signals. 2D-OCDMA network systems enable better bit-error-ratio (BER) performance as well as increase the number of supportable users in the optical network. Time-spreading wavelength-hopping is one of the many techniques that has been proposed for 2D-OCDMA. In this paper, we present the simulative study of a 2D-OCDMA system. The developed time-spreading, wavelength-hopping network utilizes enhanced double weight (EDW) code which has enhanced properties such as a cross-correlation value of 1 and has a simple encoder/decoder design. The output BER was satisfactory at above 10^?9 at data rate of 1.25 Gbps for 20 km distance with the ITU-T G.652 standard single mode optical fiber for 3 users.     

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.

All-optical code routing in interconnected optical CDMA and WDM ring networks

We propose an all-optical hybrid network composed of optical code division multiple access (CDMA) rings interconnecting through a reconfigurable wavelength division multiplexing (WDM) metro area ring. This network retains the advantages of both the optical CDMA and WDM techniques, including asynchronous access and differentiated quality of service, while removing the hard limit on the number of subscribers and increasing network flexibility. The all-optical network is enabled by using nonlinear optical loop mirrors in an add/drop router (ADR) that performs code conversion, dropping, and switching asynchronously. We experimentally demonstrate the functionalities of the ADR in the proposed scheme asynchronously and obtain error-free performance. The bit-error rate measurements show acceptable power penalties for different code routes.

A new burst assembly technique for supporting QoS in optical burst switching networks

This letter proposes a new burst assembly technique for supporting QoS in optical burst switching (OBS) networks. It consists of the adaptive-threshold burst assembly mechanism and QoS-based random offset-time scheme. The assembly mechanism, which is fit well to multi-class burst assembly, not only matches with IP QoS mechanism based on packet classification, and also utilizes fairly and efficiently assembly capacity. Based on token-bucket model and burst segment selective discard (BSSD), the offset-time scheme can smooth the traffic to support OBS QoS. The simulation results show that the technique can improve the performance in terms of packet loss probability (PLP).     

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.     

A novel super-FEC code based on concatenated code for high-speed long-haul optical communication systems

The structures of the novel super forward error correction (Super-FEC) code type based on the concatenated code for high-speed long-haul optical communication systems are studied in this paper. The Reed-Solomon (RS) (255, 239) + Bose-Chaudhuri-Hocguenghem (BCH) (1023, 963) concatenated code is presented after the characteristics of the concatenated code and the two Super-FEC code type presented in ITU-T G.975.1 have theoretically been analyzed, the simulation result shows that this novel code type, compared with the RS (255, 239) + convolutional-self-orthogonal-code (CSOC) (k₀/n₀ = 6/7, J = 8) code in ITU-T G.975.1, has a lower redundancy and better error-correction capabilities, and its net coding gain (NCG) at the third iteration is 0.57 dB more than that of RS (255, 239) + CSOC (k₀/n₀ = 6/7, J = 8) code in ITU-T G.975.1 at the third iteration for the bit error rate (BER) of 10⁻¹². Therefore, the novel code type can better be used in long-haul, larger capacity and higher bit-rate optical communication systems. Furthermore, the design and implementation of the novel concatenated code type are also discussed.     

A new green multicast grooming protection algorithm in WDM optical networks

Since optical network carries a lot of traffic, survivability is very important to ensure the service continuity against network failures. Recently, multicast services become more popular to meet the huge multimedia demand in network, so that multicast survivability in optical network has got more attention. However, multicast survivability may lead to more energy consumption due to more redundant backup resources allocated. Since greening network is particularly important with the energy crisis keeping growing, green multicast survivability in optical network is a challenging issue. This paper focuses on the green multicast grooming protection problem in optical network and designs two auxiliary graphs that includes a virtual topology graph and an integrated graph to address the survivable multicast grooming, routing and wavelength assignment. Based on the auxiliary graphs, this paper proposes an efficient heuristic called green multicast grooming algorithm based on spanning path dedicated protection (GMG-SPDP), in which the network reliability and the energy efficiency are jointly taken into account. Simulation results show that, compared to other algorithms, the proposed GMG-SPDP not only has lower blocking probability and higher bandwidth utilization ratio, but also saves more energy.

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.     

Analyses of constraints on high speed optical code division multiplexing access (OCDMA) link parameters due to fiber optic chromatic dispersion

In direct sequence-optical code division multiplexing access (DS-OCDMA) system networks, data rate and data spreading technique involved in such systems require a high chip rate. Transmission link in these systems is significantly affected by the fiber chromatic dispersion. In this study, we have developed and employed a simple model to estimate the G652 fiber dispersion effects. OCDMA technique has been employed to investigate fiber chromatic dispersion effects on multiple access interference (MAI). We have found that, at a short optical fiber length, the optical fiber dispersion has a significant impact on the high data rate transmission systems (higher than 750 Mbit/s). The performance and optimization of optical orthogonal code (OOC) in the OCDMA system is reported. We have demonstrated that, for a high data rate, even if dispersion compensated devices are not deployed, the BER can be significantly improved when the OOC desired length is selected. We have shown that when compensation dispersion devices are not deployed in the system, there is a trade off between the limited dispersion effects and the MAI.
