OPTICAL IMAGE PROCESSING USING MAXIMUM OR MINIMUM PHASE FUNCTIONS

摘要

A method utilizes an optical image processing system. The method includes calculating a product of (i) a measured magnitude of a Fourier transform of a complex transmission function of an object or optical image and (ii) an estimated phase term of the Fourier transform of the complex transmission function. The method further includes calculating an inverse Fourier transform of the product, wherein the inverse Fourier transform is a spatial function. The method further includes calculating an estimated complex transmission function by applying at least one constraint to the inverse Fourier transform.
