Figure 2

The picture shows the typical fit between the spectral intensity transfer functions of a general resonator (Lorentzian curve in red) and that of an ideal integrator (black curve). The plot makes a comparison in terms of integration bandwidth between two resonators (case a, b) with two different FSRs. A longer FRS (FSR1>FSR2) corresponds to a broader integration bandwidth (bandwidth1>bandwidth2).
