Abstract
We report here on increased bandwidth in bulk wave parametric convolvers, and demonstrate a new approach to cancellation of the inherent signal distortion in time inverters. A 6 ns compressed pulse has been generated in the convolver by autoconvolution of a 7 μs V-FM chirp signal (center frequency of 1.2 GHz), using the nonlinear interaction of longitudinal waves in LiNbO 3. Time inversion of microwave signals has been demonstrated with uniform output for signal lengths up to 5 μs, by compensating for the signal distortion resulting from delay line attenuation.
