The stimulus pattern includes sequences of signal transitions with associated transition times and the sequences of signal transitions conform to a bus protocol and the associated transition times are according to characteristics of the system. The stimulus pattern is generated by initializing each of the sequences of signal transitions to an initial signal value and the associated transition times to an initial time, generating subsequent signal values and subsequent transition times by applying protocol rules and calculating timing adjustments for each of a list of transactions; the subsequent signal values and subsequent transition times to be added to the sequences of signal transitions.

    摘要: The photonic band gap (PBG) dual-spectrum sensor utilizes the frequency-selective properties of a photonic band gap device constructed in accordance with this invention to separate incident electromagnetic wave into two frequency bands. The parameters of the PBG device are chosen so that one frequency band is transmitted through the device with low attenuation while the second band is reflected with low attenuation from the front face of the device. This separation of the two frequency bands allows separate detection processes to be performed to recover the information content of the two signals before the information is fused in subsequent signal processing operation. Such a PBG device would be useful in missile seekers that seek to distinguish a target object from its background.

    摘要: A new optical diode is disclosed that permits unidirectional transmission of light, the direction of transmission depending on the direction of incidence. The diode comprises a stack of alternating layers of a low-index material and a high-index material. The layers are arranged within the stack such that there is spatial anisotropy of optical pathlengths in the stack and at least the low-index layers or the high-index layers have an optical nonlinearity, either inherently or by doping. At sufficiently high incident intensifies and appropriate wavelengths, such a diode exhibits partial transmission of input light incident from one direction while reflecting almost totally input light incident from the opposite direction.

    摘要: An optical switch in a one-dimensional multilayer dielectric stack having a photonic band gap, composed of at least two groups of layers of dielectric material whose operating wavelength is near the edge of said photonic band gap. At least one layer of each of the groups is composed of a nonlinear c.sub.3 dielectric material, which creates an intensity-dependent shift in the location of the band gap and produces a dynamical change in the transmissive and reflective properties of the multilayer dielectric stack in response to changes in the intensity of light or the transmittance of electromagnetic radiation passing through the multilayer dielectric stack. The width of the photonic band gap is determined by the differences between the refractive indices of the nonlinear dielectric material and that of the other layers of dielectric material in the multilayer dielectric stack.
