OPTICAL CODE-ROUTED NETWORKS

摘要

Communication is provided between at least two of a plurality of stations (Ul, U2, U3, U4). A signal is received from a first one of the plurality of stations (Ul ), and the signal is coded using a first code (Cl) that is assigned to that station. The coded signal is converted to obtain a further coded signal that is decodable using a further code (Ca) that is assigned to at least a second one of the plurality of stations (U2). The further coded signal is transmitted for delivery to at least the second one of the plurality of stations.
