The linear canonical transform provides a mathematical model of paraxial propagation though quadratic phase systems. We review the literature on numerical approximation of this transform, including discretization,
sampling, ...
Rising wind generation penetrations and the distinctive inertial characteristics of associated turbine technology will impact system frequency control. While wind production will displace conventional synchronous ...
Prudent use of existing transmission capacity could be achieved by an optimal allocation of wind capacity to distinct transmission nodes. The statistical interdependency of geographically separate wind sites and the ...
We record two holograms using two different illuminating wavelengths. Subtracting these holograms, the resulting reconstruction is an approximation to the second order Laplacian differentiation of the object wave.
Photopolymers act as drivers and enabler of fabrication technologies for applications
including refractive/diffractive optical elements, hybrid 3D optoelectronic circuitry, data storage recoding media and self-trapping. ...
Sampling a function periodically replicates its spectrum. As a bilinear function of the signal, the associated Wigner distribution function contains cross terms between the replicas. Often neglected, these cross terms ...
The linear canonical transform may be used to simulate the effect of paraxial optical systems on wave fields. Using a recent definition of the discrete linear canonical transform, phase space diagram analyses of the ...
A concise review is presented of research recently carried out within our research
group. Topics discussed include: (i) Imaging through turbulent media using Lucky Imaging
combined with synthetic apertures; (ii) ...
Access to the spatial derivatives of an optical wave field can be used to enhance edge detection, focusing, and holographic imaging. It was recently shown that, by using digital holographic techniques, the Laplacian of an ...
At present there is a global concern of environmental issues and future energy supplies, for instance global warming and the rapid depletion of fossil fuels. This trepidation has initiated a more critical investigation ...
