Abstract
We demonstrate the use of an optical thresholder based on a short length of holey fibre to achieve enhanced code recognition quality in a 255 chip, 320 Gchip/s superstructured fibre Bragg grating based OCDMA code/decode system. Use of the device allows error free, penalty free operation to be obtained.
