Abstract

Utilization of both space and time integration in acousto optic signal processing over-comes some of the limitations of purely space integrating and purely time integrating techniques. A one-dimensional configuration for coherent hybrid spectrum analysis is used to show that this approach exhibits superior dynamic range characteristics, including a unique sidelobe suppression property. A coherent hybrid ambiguity function processor is discussed to illustrate the important advantages that may be exploited by using both space and time integration in delay-Doppler plane processing.
