Ultrafast photonic signal processing based on Fourier optics principles offers exciting possibilities to go beyond the processing speeds of electronics technologies for applications in high-speed fiber communications and ultrawideband wireless. I review our recent work on processing of ultrafast optical signals via conversion between time, space, and optical frequency (Fourier) domains. Specific topics include optical arbitrary waveform generation, application of optical pulse shaping technologies for wavelength-parallel compensation of fiber transmission impairments and for experimental studies of optical code-division multiple-access communications, and application of photonic methods for precompensation of dispersion effects in wireless transmission of radio-frequency signals over ultrawideband antenna links.
基于傅里叶光学原理的超快光子信号处理为超越电子技术的处理速度提供了令人兴奋的可能性，可应用于高速光纤通信和超宽带无线领域。我回顾了我们最近关于通过时间、空间和光频（傅里叶）域之间的转换来处理超快光信号的工作。具体主题包括光学任意波形生成、将光脉冲整形技术应用于光纤传输损伤的波长并行补偿以及光码分多址通信的实验研究，以及将光子方法应用于超宽带天线链路射频信号无线传输中的色散效应预补偿。
