Digital Holography Based Particle Tracking Velocimetry

Digital holography appears to be the next-generation technology for holographic diagnostics of particle fields and has been applied to holographic particle tracking flow measurements. In the digital holography, the Fresnel or Fourier holograms are recorded directly by the CCD or CMOS cameras and stored digitally. No film material involving wet-chemical or other processing is necessary as in opt...

Speckle denoising in digital holography by nonlocal means filtering.

We demonstrate the effectiveness of the nonlocal means (NLM) filter for speckle denoising in digital holography. The speckle noise adapted version of the NLM filter is compared with other common speckle denoising filters and is found to give better visual and quantitative results.

Reduction of speckle in digital holography by discrete Fourier filtering.

We present a digital signal processing technique that reduces the speckle content in reconstructed digital holograms. The method is based on sequential sampling of the discrete Fourier transform of the reconstructed image field. Speckle reduction is achieved at the expense of a reduced intensity and resolution, but this trade-off is shown to be greatly superior to that imposed by the traditiona...

Two-dimensional matched filtering for motion estimation

In this work, we describe a frequency domain technique for the estimation of multiple superimposed motions in an image sequence. The least-squares optimum approach involves the computation of the three-dimensional (3-D) Fourier transform of the sequence, followed by the detection of one or more planes in this domain with high energy concentration. We present a more efficient algorithm, based on...
