The pulse width of a laser influences its peak power and energy delivery. Shorter pulse widths result in higher peak power, which can enhance precision in applications like material processing or medical procedures. Conversely, longer pulse widths may lead to increased thermal effects, affecting the material being processed. Ultimately, the choice of pulse width depends on the desired outcome and application of the laser.
Laser pulse width refers to the duration of a single pulse of laser light, typically measured in nanoseconds (ns), picoseconds (ps), or femtoseconds (fs). It defines how long the energy of the pulse is delivered, impacting both the intensity and the interaction with materials or biological tissues. Shorter pulse widths can lead to higher peak power and are often used in applications like precision cutting or medical procedures, while longer pulse widths may be used for different effects or applications.
In Time Division Multiplexing (TDM), pulse width directly affects the signal's ability to maintain data integrity and minimize inter-symbol interference. A narrower pulse width allows for more channels to be time-multiplexed within the same bandwidth, but it increases the risk of overlapping and distortion, especially in noisy environments. Conversely, a wider pulse width can improve signal clarity and reduce interference, but it limits the number of channels that can be multiplexed. Therefore, optimizing pulse width is crucial for balancing channel capacity and signal quality in TDM systems.
The width of the pulse in PPM is not important, but is usually very narrow and constant in any given PPM system.

For the Radar Case: The bandwidth of the pulse is the reciprocal of the Pulse Duration (called Pulse Width) as any filtering needs to be able to detection and follow the pulse shape and its edges. The pulse width is the AM modulation to a Fixed Frequency Carrier Frequency and the AM modulation will be greater bandwidth then the Carrier Frequency. As you are attempting to reject receiving other emissions and noise that do not match your own emissions such that your receiver is "match filtered" to your emissions, your receiver bandwidth will be at least the reciprocal of the pulse width but is lightly to be a smaller bandwidth then the reciprocal of the pulse width.
pulse width modulation is nothing but changing on and off time period of a waveform without changing its frequency
In general, pulse width does not directly affect wave speed. The speed of a wave is determined by the medium through which it is propagating and the properties of that medium, rather than the pulse width itself. However, in practical applications, a shorter pulse width may allow for a higher data transmission rate in communication systems, which can indirectly impact the speed of information transfer.
Yes, increasing the width of a pulse generally increases its RMS (Root Mean Square) value. The RMS value is influenced by both the amplitude and the duration of the pulse; a wider pulse means that the signal is sustained over a longer period, which contributes to a higher average power. However, the exact change in RMS value also depends on the height of the pulse and how the pulse shape changes with width.

Explain with diagram the technique Pulse-width modulation?
Pulse width is the time in milliseconds that the injector is energized, the duty cycle is the percentage of on-time to total cycle time
