Abstract

A scheme for a multi-functional photonic assisted temporal signal processor is proposed using a tunable modulation module inside a time-spectrum convolution system. Both the first-, second-order differentiation and intensity integration are experimentally demonstrated. The differential and integral signals of two input signals are successfully obtained by adjusting a band-pass optical filter and a polarization controller.
