Acousto-optic signal processors for transmission and reception of phased-array antenna signals

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

Novel acousto-optic processors for control and signal processing in phased-array antennas are presented. These processors can operate in both the antenna transmit and receive modes. An experimental acousto­optic processor is demonstrated in the laboratory. This optical technique replaces all the phase-shifting devices required in electronically controlled phased-array antennas.
