Abstract
Because a joint transform correlator can be used as a general optical signal processor, complex-impulse-response implementations in the spatial domain are often requested. We introduce a position-encoding technique with which complex-valued references for the joint transform correlator can be obtained with an amplitude-modulated spatial light modulator. A proof-of-concept experiment is also provided.
