Singularities in Speckled Speckle: Statistics
نویسندگان
چکیده
Random optical fields with two widely different correlation lengths generate far field speckle spots that are themselves highly speckled. We call such patterns speckled speckle, and study their critical points (singularities and stationary points) using analytical theory and computer simulations. We find anomalous spatial arrangements of the critical points and orders of magnitude anomalies in their relative number densities, and in the densities of the associated zero crossings.

Singularities in speckled speckle.
Speckle patterns produced by random optical fields with two (or more) widely different correlation lengths exhibit speckle spots that are themselves highly speckled. Using computer simulations and analytic theory we present results for the point singularities of speckled speckle fields, namely, optical vortices in scalar (one polarization component) fields and C points in vector (two polarizati...
متن کاملSingularities in speckled speckle: screening.
We study screening of optical singularities in random optical fields with two widely different length scales. We call the speckle patterns generated by such fields speckled speckle, because the major speckle spots in the pattern are themselves highly speckled. We study combinations of fields whose components exhibit short- and long-range correlations and find unusual forms of screening.
متن کاملLaser eye safety: the implications of ordinary speckle statistics and of speckled-speckle statistics.
The implications of speckle statistics on laser eye-safety considerations are evaluated. The concept of speckled speckle is introduced, and its statistics are shown to correspond to the K0 function. Speckled speckle is defined in terms of the retinal power density when the eye is viewing an optically rough surface that is illuminated by a laser beam diffused through a ground-glass screen-a situ...
متن کاملNoise Removal in SAR Images using Orthonormal Ridgelet Transform
Development in the field of image processing for reducing speckle noise from digital images/satellite images is a challenging task for image processing applications. Previously many algorithms were proposed to de-speckle the noise in digital images. Here in this article we are presenting experimental results on de-speckling of Synthetic Aperture RADAR (SAR) images. SAR images have wide applicat...
متن کاملNonsubsampled contourlet transform based spatially adaptive shrinkage for speckle reduction of medical ultrasound image
Speckle is a multiplicative noise that degrades ultrasound images. In this paper, a statistical spatially adaptive approach for speckle reduction in medical ultrasound images based posterior conditional means (PCM) estimation in the nonsubsampled contourlet domain is proposed. In this framework, a new class of statistical model for nonsubsampled contourlet coefficients is proposed. And the prop...
