Construction of optimal 2D variable-weight optical orthogonal co...

A new construction method of two-dimensional (2D) variable-weight optical orthogonal codes (VWOOCs) is proposed for high-speed optical code-division multiple-access (OCDMA) networks supporting multiple qualities of services (QoS). The proposed codes have at most one-pulse per wavelength (AM-OPPW) property. An upper bound of the codeword cardinality of the 2D VWOOCs with AM-OPPW property is derived. It is then shown that the constructed codes have ideal correlation properties and optimal cardinal
