Abstract

The present invention provides an arrangement for analyzing or reconstructing incoming pulses of electromagnetic energy in which there is detected (a) the spectral amplitude of at least one pulse and (b) the phase shifts of portions of the pulse with respect to a non-phase shifted portion, and applying an inverse Fourier transform to the detected energy thereby producing the temporal profile of the pulse.
