Abstract:

The objective of this project was to determine the theoretical performance and design latitude available from optical fiber based signal processors in accomplishing filtering, coded sequence generation, and matrix multiplication functions. Towards this goal the contractor has completed the study, design, fabrication and testing aspects of the coded sequence generator. The study and design facets of the filter and matrix multiplier functions also have been accomplished but the fabrication and testing aspects of the processors have not been done. This report extends the art of fiber based signal processors, points the way towards further work and has produced a significant patent included and numerous open literature publications.
