Pulse to Pulse Encoding in Optical Communications
نویسندگان
چکیده
Optical pulsing of a laser beam provides a convenient manner for transmitting digital information, and such procedures have led to well-accepted classes of pulse amplitude and pulse position modulation formats. However the excessive pulse dispersion and background light bursts that characterize several optical channels severly limit performance and achievable data rates. One procedure for combating these effects is to encode data over a multiple of pulse frames, and decode sequences of pulses rather than each pulse individually. In the paper pulse to pulse encoding and decoding of an optical beam is examined, considering both photodector gain effects and receiver thermal noise. Theoretical performance results are presented, and the relation between this type of decoding and “tree searching” is developed.

In this paper, we propose a hybrid pulse position modulation/ultrashort light pulse code-division multiple-access (PPM/ULP-CDMA) system for ultrafast optical communications. The proposed system employs spectral CDMA encoding/decoding and PPM with very short pulse separation. The statistical properties of the encoded ULP are investigated with a general pulse model, and the performance of the pro...
