A WM SAC code is a low weight SAC code, where the whole code structure is repeated diagonally (once or more) in the wavelength domain to achieve the same cardinality as a higher weight SAC code. Results show that for highly populated networks, the WM SAC codes provide better performance than SAC codes. However, for small number of active users the situation is reversed. Apart from their promising improvement in performance, these codes are more flexible and impose less complexity on the system design than their SAC counterparts. date: 2013 publisher: EDP Sciences official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-84879959047&doi=10.2971%2fjeos.2013.13040&partnerID=40&md5=c6e902c585100f5bcb13ad293b137732 id_number: 10.2971/jeos.2013.13040 full_text_status: none publication: Journal of the European Optical Society volume: 8 refereed: TRUE issn: 19902573 citation: Alhassan, A.M. and Badruddin, N. and Saad, N.M. and Aljunid, S.A.
