Abstract :
The BER and throughput of direct-sequence OCDMA/WDM systems based on quadripolar codes and superstructured fiber Bragg gratings are statistically derived under asynchronous operation, intensity detection, and multiple user interference. Performance improvements with forward error correction are included.
