The time variation of the focal plane speckle is achieved by a process known as smoothing by spectral dispersion (SSD). In SSD, a small amount of frequency modulated (FM) bandwidth is added to the laser, and this is angularly dispersed using a diffraction grating in the front end. 3, record 1, English, - smoothing%20by%20spectral%20dispersion
