Abstract :
This research aims to extend the number of resolvable spots by utilizing a novel pulse shaping technique based solely on time domain processing through the use of linear chromatic dispersion for spectral decomposition. A potential advantage of this technique over conventional time-space approaches to pulse shaping is the large number of resolvable spots possible when using a dispersed-pulse time window.
