Abstract
The design and operation of a multidimensional photorefractive correla tor is described. With a photorefractive medium as the integrator, thi s system effects the correlation of up to four time-evolving signals. The holographic correlation volume is viewed by projection onto a two- dimensional detector. The correlator is designed for use with binary-p hase signals, especially pseudorandom noise sequences.
