Abstract
A peristrophic multiplexing system directs a signal light beam and reference light beam onto a selected recording spot in the recording medium. The light beams collectively define a plane of interaction. Either the recording medium or the signal/reference beam are rotated relative to the other through a succession of peristrophic multiplexing angles. Those angles cause relative rotation about an axis that is not perpendicular to the plane of selectivity. The rotation occurs contemporaneously with the modulating of the hologram on the medium.
