Abstract
In this paper, we introduce the perfect difference sets and propose a synchronous fiber-optic code-division multiple-access system (CDMA) using these sets to generate the signature codes. Two interesting properties of these codes are discussed: 1) any two different codes are cyclic-shifted with each other and 2) the cross correlation between any two different codes is exactly one. Thus, we may treat these codes as quasi-orthogonal codes. Using the first property of these codes, we can simplify design of the transmitter. In the receiver, we can use the second property to effectively eliminate the multiple-user interference (MUI) without reducing the number of usable codes. Based on the proposed transmitter and receiver, the system performance is derived. The numerical examples reveal that the proposed system can provide reliable communication even under heavy load. We believe that the proposed system using perfect difference codes outperforms any other synchronous fiber-optic CDMA systems.
