Abstract
A 10Gbit/s, 810fs, return-to-zero signal is spectrally encoded, transmitted over a 40km dispersion shifted fibre, and decoded using a photonic spectra l encoder and decoder pair that uses high resolution arrayed-waveguide grat ings and phase filters. A 255 bit binary phase code with the maximum length sequence is used for spectral coding.
