Abstract
New applications of the use of coherent optical processing techniques, especially matched spatial filtering and input format control, in radar and sonar signal processing are reviewed. Emphasis is given to specific problems such as long coded waveforms of thousands of bits, processing of coded phased array and pulse burst radar waveforms, generation of the ambiguity function for use in radar waveform analysis, and the use of space variant optical processing as a novel approach to radar signal processing.
