Abstract

We propose a new receiver structure for optical code-division multiple-access (CDMA) networks avoiding data collisions. These collisions result from the used addressing scheme, and they occur, if more than one transmitter sends its data packets to the same receiver. By using a receiver for multiple data packets and considering the capture effect we show, that the effect of data collisions can be reduced significantly. Moreover, we analyze the performance of this scheme using packet success probability and network throughput.
