Abstract

A new technique of the correlation processing of data based on the nonlinear interaction of signals of backward volume magnetostatic waves in yttrium-iron garnet thin films and a corresponding laboratory mock-up of the correlation receiver operating in the 6 cm wavelength range have been presented in this paper. It was proposed to use additional pumping pulse for obtaining a time-reversed signal pulse. The resultant correlation signal occurred during the nonlinear interaction of the delayed signal wave and the pumping-reversed wave. The specificity of the passage of broadband signals through the resonance system of waveguide of spin waves was taken into account. It has been found out that the resonance properties of the correlator affect the efficiency of the desired signal separation from the noise level. The resultant signal-to-noise ratio for the output signal was enhanced by more than 20 dB.
