Abstract

Target objects used to construct matched filters for correlator applications are generally recorded on photographic film. Most commercial emulsions of interest are coated on birefringent substrate. The authors address the effects of this birefringence upon the interference pattern recorded as a matched filter in coherent optical correlators. Results are then expanded to include several types of multiple matched filters. Finally, techniques are discussed that reduce the deleterious effects of input film birefringence.
