Incoherent fractional Fourier transform and its optical implementation

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

The fractional Fourier transform is redefined for working with incoherent light. As a real transformation, the incoherent fractional Fourier transform overcomes coherent system disadvantages such as the speckle effect and the need for incoherent–coherent conversion. It also might have some applications for digital image and signal processing owing to its decreased computing complexity. An incoherent optical implementation of the new transform based on the shearing interferometer is suggested. Laboratory experimental results are given.
