Summary:

This unparalleled single-source reference/text throughly describes all aspects of acousto-optic signal processing -- from the theory of acousto-optic interaction and basic devices to the practical application of both frequency- and time-domain signal processing systems.

Addressing difficult implementation issues associated with the insertion of acousto-optic processors into system applications, Acousto-Optic Signal Processing, Second Edition contains important new information on spectrum analysis...signal correlation...signal delay applications...image processing...photonic switching...and more.
