Distributed-Based Transversal Filter Approach for Spectrally Encoded Multi-Gb/s CDMA Systems

Abstract

A novel distributed transversal filter technique for code division multiple access systems is proposed. It is observed that the distributed amplifier principle underlying the filter approach enables the generation of multi-gigahertz waveforms with suitable accuracy. The DTF method is considered in the context of phase-addressing code division multiplexing systems. Simulation results based on a full layout design illustrate the viability of the approach.
