Abstract

OCDMA is a promising multi-access scheme for future optical communication networks. We propose in this paper, a novel bandwidth efficient modulation scheme that offers higher spectral efficiency than OOK-OCDMA and PPM-OCDMA. This modulation scheme that we call circular shift modulation (CSM) -OCDMA is analyzed and simulated. As this new modulation scheme may result in increasing levels of multiple access interference (MAI), we couple this modulation scheme with a recently proposed parallel interference cancellation (PIC) technique that exploits the non-negativity of the incoherent OCDMA system to improve its performance. The proposed modulation scheme is analyzed in terms of data rate and Bandwidth efficiency. Simulation results reveal a considerable increase in system performance and bandwidth-utilization efficiency.
