Abstract

System and methods for producing a plurality of Sinc shaped pulses in the time domain include a light source for providing an input light signal having an input frequency, and at least one spectrum shaper for producing the plurality of Sinc shaped pulses from the input light signal. The spectrum shaper may include an amplitude modulator, at least one radio-frequency generator and a bias voltage generator.
