Informationen zum Autor ANTHONY VANDERLUGT was best known as the inventor of the VanderLugt filter and the VanderLugt correlator. He was both Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering at North Carolina State University and a senior scientist in the Advanced Technology Department of the Harris Corporation, where he worked on research relating to optical processing of wide-band signals. Klappentext An indispensable treatment of optical signal processing--now in a convenient paperback editionThis introduction to optical signal processing offers an unparalleled look at its underlying theory and selected processing applications. Designed as both a senior-level undergraduate or first-year graduate-level textbook and a reference for professionals working in the field, Optical Signal Processing begins with a clear, methodical look at the fundamentals of optical signal processing, forming a firm foundation for a discussion of the field's ever-evolving technological breadth. Beginning with the second half of the book, special emphasis is given to processing wide bandwidth signals in real time by using acousto-optic technology.Complete with detailed study problems that test the limits of students' knowledge, this comprehensive text forms a complete one-volume account of the theory and applications of optical signal processing. Professional engineers and physicists will find the sheer breadth of up-to-date coverage and detail of Optical Signal Processing provides them with an indispensable treatment of this influential technology.
