title: Fully parallel, high-speed incoherent optical method for performing discrete Fourier transforms.
abstract: An incoherent optical data-processing method is described, which has the potential for performing discrete Fourier transforms of short length at rates far exceeding those afforded by both special-purpose digital hardware and representative coherent optical processors.
