Abstract

The development of optical information technologies results in the use of informational responses to describe optical and optoelectronic devices. To obtain the informational responses, it is necessary to use traditional optical responses and to establish their interconnection. It is proposed to convert the optical responses into the informational responses by using frequency-gradation responses based on discretization of the optical field and the optical signal.
