Noise and information in interferometric cross correlators.
نویسندگان
چکیده
We consider optical interferometric cross correlators based on broadband light sources. We derive the signal-to-noise ratio from basic principles and supply experimental evidence that corroborates the theoretical analysis. Noise sources are discussed, and the signal-to-noise ratio of our experimental system is measured.

Comparison of Local and Non-Local Methods in Covariance Matrix Estimation by Using Multi-baseline SAR Interferometry and Height Extraction for Principal Components with Maximum Likelihood Approach
By today, the technology of synthetic aperture radar (SAR) interferometry (InSAR) has been largely exploited in digital elevation model (DEM) generation and deformation mapping. Conventional InSAR technique exploits two SAR images acquired from slightly different angles, in which the information of elevation and deformation can be captured through processing of the phase difference of the image...
متن کاملPoint-spread functions for interferometric imaging
Interferometric redatuming is a data-driven method to transform seismic responses with sources at one level and receivers at a deeper level into virtual reflection data with both sources and receivers at the deeper level. Although this method has traditionally been applied by cross-correlation, accurate redatuming through a heterogeneous overburden requires solving a multidimensional deconvolut...
متن کاملA High Performance Ku-band Two Channel Downconverter for Interferometric Radar Applications
This paper addresses the initial stages for the design, construction and testing of a two-channel, twostage downconverter from Ku-band to IF, where the emphasis on relative phase accuracy and inter-channel cross-talk requirements are critical design elements in the application of the downconverter for interferometric radar applications.
متن کاملEnhanced Statistical Stability in Coherent Interferometric Imaging
We analyze the resolution and statistical fluctuations of images when the ambient medium is random and scattering can be modeled primarily by wavefront distortion. We compare the coherent interferometric imaging method to the widely used Kirchhoff migration and show how the latter loses statistical stability at an exponential rate with the distance of propagation. In Kirchhoff migration we form...
متن کاملThe relationship between occupational noise exposure and worker’s communication skills in miners in Iran: A cross-sectional study
Introduction: Workplace noise is one of the causes of job stress. Stress can affect a personchr('39')s communication skills. Therefore, the present study was aimed to investigate the relationship between occupational noise exposure and workers communication skills. Methods: This cross-sectional study conducted in 2019 in one of the mines in Yazd province. The sample size was 80 people who were...
