Novel configurations of optical temporal signal processing

Spatial optical data processing has been widely used during the last decade evolving many new and essential configurations. Recently, due to accelerat ed technological advancement, the processing of temporal signal:, having op tical carrier frequency became vastly used. In this paper based on the basi c spatial optical setups, various novel optical configurations are suggeste d. These configurations are to be used for processing of temporal signals h aving optical carrier frequency. Each configuration has its own processing qualities. The properties of each configuration are listed and discussed.
