Abstract:Background. Coherent optical spectrum analyzers (COSA) are widely used in data processing systems. The efficiency of the spectrum analyzers is determined by their generalized characteristics such as the operating range of spatial frequencies, spatial bandwidth, the spatial spectral resolution and the energy resolution. One of such characteristics is geometric noise bandwidth GNBW that determines the spatial spectral resolution of spectrum analyzer. Objective. The purpose of this article is to provide a physica… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
