Abstract
The design and performance evaluation of a W-band wavelength division multiplexed-over-optical code division multiple access radio-over-fiber system are presented. The system’s performance introduces expansion in the number of channels and bit rate per channel for millimeter wave signals by optically encoding signals in a multiwavelength transmission system. The performance of the system is verified based on software simulation of three channels that carry six users’ encoded data. The achieved results are measured in bit-error-rate and eye-diagram figures. The obtained results are analyzed for each wavelength channels and each code families used. Bit error rates of 10  −  2 to 10  −  6 are obtained for channels operating at 10  Gb  /  s.
