Error analysis of high data rate, optical parallel processors.
Optical parallel processors have the potential for aiding the transfer of information over networks. The systems implications for a baseline architecture employing spatial light modulators, lenses, and charge-coupled devices are examined. Specifically, because many applications have stringent requirements on errors, this study concentrates on categorizing the potential error sources-both random and systematic-and presents the results of an error analysis for a pixel-to-pixel mapping system as a notional example.
