A novel non-coherent spectral OCDMA system using one-dimensional expanded Hybrid codes for two-code keying

We propose leveraging one-dimensional expanded Hybrid codes (1-D E-Hybrid codes) for two-code keying (TCK) in spectral amplitude coding (SAC) optical code division multiple access (OCDMA) networks. Compared with the existing work, the proposed system can utilize all codes and provide a larger code size to support more simultaneous users. The numerical results demonstrate that the 1-D E-Hybrid codes for TCK outperform the existing 1-D approaches in terms of bit error rate (BER), and the data transmission rate can achieve 2.5 Gbps.
