Abstract :
In this letter, a passive integrated device is presented that enables cost-effective parallel encoding and decoding in a spectral amplitude encoded optical code-division multiple-access transmission system. The device is monolithically integrated in InP-InGaAsP. Simulation and experimental results are given
