Abstract

We previously reviewed the architecture and basic analytic results for a hybrid optical-digital processor capable of generating target range Doppler profiles in real time. Here we describe the optical design and present preliminary results for the optical correlator portion of the hybrid system. Phase control, fringe stability, and preliminary correlation data for the optical system are reported.
