Direct RF A-O Processor Spectrum Analyzer.

Abstract

The primary objective was to develop and demonstrate design approach, along with the associated processing technologies, for a wideband acousto optic Bragg cell spectrum analyzer. The signal processor used to demonstrate feasibility of the technical approach consisted of two bulk wave acousto optic deflectors. The Spectrum Analyzer operated from 4 to 8 GHz and was used to demonstrate the performance requirements of NRL Specification No. 57R16 34 002, Rev. A., for a 'Direct RF A-O Processor and Spectrum Analyzer.'
