Optical Code Division Multiple Access (O-CDMA)

Optical Code Division Multiple Access (O-CDMA) is a technology that allows multiple users to share the same optical network—such as fiber optics—simultaneously. It works by assigning each user a unique "code" or pattern, which modulates their data signals. These codes enable the signals to be distinguished and separated at the receiver, even though they travel together. This method increases network capacity and efficiency, allowing more users to access high-speed optical communication simultaneously without interference, making it suitable for high-demand data transfer environments.
