    A Wavelength division multiplexing passive optical network (WDM-PON) system that uses spectrum-sliced broadband incoherent light is attractive because it avoids the cost of operating/administering wavelengths in optical network units (ONU) at customer premises. However, it is difficult to enhance the spectrum efficiency to ensure a sufficient signal to noise ratio because it would demand broad channel width. To overcome this problem, we proposed a spectrum-interleaved duplex technique. It enables upstream and downstream communications to share one channel by using a cyclic filter. This sharing of one channel eliminates the need for a guard interval between signal lights duplexed in the channel. One residual issue regarding single band transmission is its robustness to reflection in the transmission medium. To increase the reflection robustness of the spectrum-interleaved duplex scheme, we propose a reflection remover based on an optical code division multiplexing technique. We also evaluate the extent to which capacity of the spectrum efficiency of the spectrum-interleaved duplex WDM-PON system that uses spectrum-sliced broadband incoherent light can be increased.
