Data Compression for Fourier Spectroscopy,

Abstract

A brief description of the technique of Fourier spectroscopy and its advantages over single-slit conventional spectrometers will be presented. The data handling problems which arise due to the efficiency of the technique will be discussed as well as some techniques which have been used for reducing the large dynamic range requirements intrinsic to the technique. Other techniques which have not been tried for Fourier spectroscopy will be discussed in the hope of encouraging theoretical and experimental research in this specific problem area which will be facing future sophisticated satellite systems.
