Abstract

Acoustooptic channelized receivers employing incoherent, time-integrating detection are limited to a pulse time-of-arrival (TOA) resolution equal to the photodetector integration time. A novel method is shown for utilizing two synchronous channelizers to achieve fine-grain TOA resolution within an integration period. The addition of a third channelizer is shown to yield pulse width information.
