Abstract :
We present specifications for transmission of code-division-multiple-access (CDMA) signals over an optical link, and demonstrate that unisolated, uncooled Fabry-Perot lasers can meet these requirements. Since full testing using a CDMA base station is not practical, a simple test using two tones to simulate the RF channel has been developed and used
