example of showing a time-to-spatial-signal conversion. In other words, a
one-dimensional time signal can be converted into a two-dimensional spatial
format for optical processing. If we assume the return sweep is adequately
higher as compared with the maximum frequency content of the time signal, a
two-dimensional raster-scanned format, which represents a long string of time
signals, can be written as
f(x,y)= Z /W/lv), (2.62)
where N = h/b is the number of scanned lines within the two-dimensional input
