Abstract: | A new family of two-dimensional (2-D) codes constructed by combining frequency-hop and time-spreading codes is presented. The proposed codes are designed to overcome the limitation imposed on the maximum permissible number of simultaneous users in optical code-division multiple-access (OCDMA) systems. To increase the data transmission rate, the 2-D codes employ a M-ary signalling scheme. The proposed family of codes has the favourable characteristics of a zero autocorrelation constraint and a cross-correlation constraint of one. The performance of the 2-D code is analysed in terms of the bit error rate (BER) and is compared with that of a conventional OCDMA system using optical orthogonal code (OOC). The numerical and simulation results reveal that the proposed system outperforms conventional OCDMA systems both in terms of the BER and the data transmission rate. In addition, the system capacity is sufficient to ensure reliable communication (BERles10-9) in local area networks |
