Shaping the Amplitude and Phase of Laser Beams by Using a Phase-only Spatial Light Modulator
Published on: January 28, 2019
Abstract:
Pulse modulation of electronic time signals is a well-proven concept, particularly in the context of data communications and computers. We suggest that pulse modulation of spatial optical signals might be another fruitful concept. The optical components and optical methods for performing the necessary operations for spatial pulse modulation are available. We demonstrate this experimentally by encoding a two-dimensional analog signal (an image) into a one-dimensional pulse signal. This might be of interest in connection with picture transmission over electronic channels, with cinematography, and with holography.

Pulse amplitude and quality
A weak or absent pulse may indicate reduced cardiac output or poor left ventricular contraction, which can be signs of cardiovascular dysfunction or...
Rectangular and Triangular Pulse Function
For example, consider a rectangular pulse with a 5V amplitude, a 3-second duration, and centered at t=2 seconds. This pulse can be expressed using the rectangular function, written as,

Conversely, an irregular pulse pattern is termed dysrhythmia, stemming from disruptions in cardiac muscle...
