Influence of a coherent-optic processor on the directional-diagram-forming properties of radio-optic antenna arrays
Abstract
The aim of the present analysis is to evaluate the unfavorable influence of imperfections, on the order of the wavelength of light (0.633 micron) and less, on the diagram-forming properties of antenna arrays with optically processed signals. The parameters of a coherent-optic processor which ensure adequate properties of an antenna array are identified.
