Abstract

Acoustooptic processors are mostly long-term devices for real time signal analysis and for modern optical parallel computers. Their merits are evident in the field of radioinformation, for instance in radioastronomy. But the realization of the whole cycle processing with the demands of high output SNR, high reliability and stability of the results of computation can be possible only in a hybrid optoelectronic processor with the controlled semiconductor laser. These lasers broaden the field of application of optical processors that includes the one pulse analysis of high rate processes, gives the opportunity to recieve compact and high stable devices.
