Temporal-spatial optical information processing

Abstract
Increasing demands for multi-media information in a networked society requires an optical fiber communication system with ultra-high transmission capacity at all times. A lot of researchers make strong effort to increase transmission capacity in an optical fiber communication system. The main target in multi-media is certainly ultra-high speed information processing including high-resolutional image signals transmission. Especially, to realize ultra-high speed image processing with a current communication infrastructure, it is necessary to develop a new technique for ultra-fast conversion between image signals and time sequential ones. We propose the novel optical space-to-time-to-space conversion technique for the ultra-fast image transmission by using an ultra-fast pulse laser.© (1997) COPYRIGHT SPIE--The International Society for Optical Engineering.
