A Coherent Optical Spread Spectrum technique involving phase modulatio
n of a lightwave carrier and self-homodyne detection is proposed. This
technique is described theoretically and tested experimentally. A fib
re optic Code Division Multiple Access communication system using a ma
ster laser source and employing the above spread spectrum technique is
proposed.
