We survey the current trends in OCDMA and optical coding through their applications.
Although a prerequisite for OCDMA, optical coding distinguishes itself from OCDMA through …

Feature Issue on Optical Code Division Multiple Access I present an in-depth review of the
trends and the directions taken by researchers worldwide in optical code-division multiple …

A detailed description of the design guidelines for a full encoder/decoder that is able to
generate/process a set of optical codes simultaneously is reported. The device has an array …

Coauthored by the developer of nanophotonics, this book outlines physically intuitive
concepts of the subject using a novel theoretical framework that differs from conventional …

The performance of the phase-shifted superstructured fiber Bragg grating (SSFBG) for
optical code (OC) recognition was investigated with different reflectivity as well as input …

The generation and recognition of a record-length 511-chip optical code is experimentally
demonstrated by use of a superstructured fiber Bragg grating (SSFBG) with a chip rate of …

In this paper, a programmable binary pattern recognition system that also indicates the
temporal position of the matched target sequence is described. The system employs all …

A hybrid optical switch (HOS) with physical layer of wavelength division multiplexing and
optical code division multiplexing (WDM/OCDM) scheme is proposed. An additional feature …

Feature Issue on Optical Interconnection Networks (OIN) We describe hybrid optical-
electrical systems that perform header processing and buffering of ultrafast, asynchronous …

A 200-gigachip/s multiple encoder/decoder in an arrayed waveguide configuration, which
generates and recognizes simultaneously 16 optical labels in parallel, has been fabricated …
