Behavior study of EDEU optical code for FE-OCDMA system
Abstract The increase in the cardinality of the frequency encoding-optical code division multiple access (OCDMA) system directly affects the length of the optical code, which leads us to find a less expensive solution. In this work, I propose an improved version of the diagonal eigenvalue Unit code (DEU) called Enhanced diagonal eigenvalue Unit code (EDEU) that is much easier in terms of construction and short in code length compared to the DEU code. The results found showed that the performance of the EDEU code exceeds the DEU code in terms of bit error rate (BER), and allowed us to multiplex about 15 more users when using the EDEU code compared to the system using the DEU code. As a result, the EDEU code is very suitable for use in access and OCDMA systems and it can be seen as a strong competitor to existing codes.
