Abstract
A real-time radar processor with an electron beam addressed KD(2)PO(4) light valve as the input electrical-to-optical transducer is described. The input format, output plane pattern, and the required optical processing of pulsed Doppler and FM stepped radar data on this system are discussed. Experimental output plane patterns with actual radar data are presented. Although these data are processed off-line, the processing is performed at real-time data rates.
