Abstract:The effects of relative intensity noise (RIN) on the multiwavelength optical orthogonal code‐division multiple‐access (OOCDMA) communication system is investigated with two‐, three‐, four‐, and six‐wavelength cases using an erbium‐doped fiber laser, a graded‐index multimode (GI–MM) fiber channel, and a direct‐detection (DD) receiver assuming chip synchronization between user codewords, performing Gaussian approximation analysis. It reveals that RIN affects the error performance of the system significantly, for… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
