  • Abstract
    A method of factoring within the prime modular subprocessors in an optical processor which employs residue number systems in solution of adaptive antenna problems is described. The resultant system is shown to afford the same degree of computational accuracy at substantial reductions in the numbers of optical components required. Illustrative examples are given for a very small modulus, and the approach to extension to very much larger RNS moduli ins outlined.
