Optical complex matrix–vector multiplication with negative binary inner products
Liren Liu, Guoqiang Li, Yaozu Yin · Optics Letters · 1994
Based on the mixed negative binary number system, we propose an inner-product algorithm for digital complex-valued matrix-vector multiplication. The features are no carries, no signs, no indications for decimal points, and simple preprocessing and postprocessing. Correspondingly, an optical architecture of incoherent optical correlation with spatial digital coding of data is suggested. Negative binary complex matrix-vector multiplication can be realized optically in parallel with a high accuracy. The experimental result is also given.
