20
Q

OTF can be written as

A

𝑂𝑇𝐹 = 𝑀𝑇𝐹 ∙ exp(−𝑖 (𝑃𝑇𝐹)) = 𝐹𝑇{𝑃𝑆𝐹}

21
Q

Modulation transfer function (MTF) describes

A

how an oscillating signal changes in amplitude due to system

A

spatial frequency at 10% of MTF or FWHM PSF

23
Q

OTF of system is the product of the OTFs of the individual subsystems (linear)

A

𝑜𝑢𝑡𝑝𝑢𝑡 𝑢 = 𝑖𝑛𝑝𝑢𝑡( 𝑢) ∙ 𝑂𝑇𝐹 (𝑜𝑝𝑡𝑖𝑐𝑠) ∙ 𝑂𝑇𝐹 (𝑑𝑒𝑡𝑒𝑐𝑡𝑜𝑟) ∙𝑂𝑇𝐹 (𝑎𝑡𝑚𝑜𝑠𝑝ℎ𝑒𝑟𝑒 )∙ 𝑂𝑇𝐹 (𝑎𝑙𝑔𝑜𝑟𝑖𝑡ℎ𝑚𝑠 )∙ …

Q

naive’ deconvolution

A

𝑓’ = 𝐹𝑇^−1( G/H)

25
in deconvolution, noise term dominates for
high frequencies
26
Problems of “naive” deconvolution
* numerically unstable (division by zero) * no accounting for Signal to Noise Ratio, SNR (increase of noise at high frequencies)
27
more sophisticated methods instead of naive deconv
Wiener deconvolution (Least squares optimization, with known MTF and NPS) Richardson-Lucy deconvolution iterative, known PSF) Blind deconvolution (unknown PSF)
28
Wiener deconvolution minimizes
least squares error
