  • Abstract
    We propose the use of a divided spectrum balanced detection (DSBD) to reduce the intensity noise in spectral amplitude coding (SAC) OCDMA systems. Simulation results show several order of magnitude improvements in bit error rate (BER) compared to the conventional balanced detection.
