TODO - In this letter, the code division multiple access discrete multitone (CDMA-DMT) modulation scheme is experimentally investigated for transmission over an intensity modulation direct-detection link of 100 m of 1-mm polymethyl methacrylate step-index plastic optical fibers. CDMA-DMT is a multicarrier modulation scheme combining the merits of both CDMA and DMT and in which CDMA is utilized to perform a spreading operation of the data symbols in the frequency domain using orthogonal spreading codes. It is experimentally shown that CDMA-DMT performs better than conventional DMT in terms of achieved bit-error rate, for transmission rates in the range of 1 Gbps and over the same experimental configuration. © 1989-2012 IEEE.
