Multiscale Photonic Data Fusion Networks and Their Interfaces

摘要

We describe results for the period 30 September 1995 - 29 November 1997 in abasic research program on Multiscale Photonic Data Fusion Networks and Their Interfaces, part of the DoD Focused Research Initiative (FRI) program performed at the University of Southern California (USC). The research results include: (1) high speed photonic network architectures, (2) photonic system design and integration for space, (2) wavelength and time signal processing and transmission, and (3) image processing, compression and coding algorithms. The report contents includes: (1) Optoelectronic Interfaces for Optical Page-Oriented Memory and High Speed; (2) Wavelength-Division-Multiplexing for High-Speed Network Gateways; and (3) Pruned Octree Feature for Interactive Retrieval.
