Weighted adaptive spatial filtering in digital holographic microscopy

摘要

Spatial filtering, a key point to realize real-time measurement, is used commonly in digital off-axis holography to extract desired terms. In this paper, we propose a weighted adaptive spatial filtering method by weighting the adaptive filtering window (obtained from image segmentation) based on signal to noise ratio. The advantages of this method are evaluated by simulations and further verified by recorded digital image plane holograms. The results demonstrate that our method is effective in suppressing noise and retaining the sharp edges in the reconstructed 3D profiles. (C) 2016 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
