Abstract :
The use of fiber-optic lattices for the generation of quasi-prime codes is described, and their application to CDMA communications is discussed. Theoretical and experimental results (including typical autocorrelation and crosscorrelation performance) are presented for the programmable all-optical generation and decoding of such codes using electrooptically switchable lattices
