Weighted Self-Threshold Local Contrast Method for Daytime Shortwave Infrared Adaptive Optics
To achieve high-resolution imaging during daytime, we designed a short-wave infrared adaptive optics (SWIR AO) system utilizing the Shack-Hartmann wavefront sensor (SHWS). A weighted self-thresholding local contrast algorithm is proposed to minimize complex background and pixel-sized noise with high brightness (PNHB) in real-time applications. The algorithm effectively suppresses interference while enhancing the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). The simulations show a higher robustness and lower centroid estimation error, than the traditional algorithm. Further, field experiments were also carried out. Deployed on our SWIR AO of a 4-m telescope, the proposed algorithm yielded a 30-fold peak SNR boost for HIP11698 (6.2Mv), from below 0.28 to 8.49, when the elevation angle of the sun was 37.1°.
期刊介绍:
IEEE Photonics Technology Letters addresses all aspects of the IEEE Photonics Society Constitutional Field of Interest with emphasis on photonic/lightwave components and applications, laser physics and systems and laser/electro-optics technology. Examples of subject areas for the above areas of concentration are integrated optic and optoelectronic devices, high-power laser arrays (e.g. diode, CO2), free electron lasers, solid, state lasers, laser materials'' interactions and femtosecond laser techniques. The letters journal publishes engineering, applied physics and physics oriented papers. Emphasis is on rapid publication of timely manuscripts. A goal is to provide a focal point of quality engineering-oriented papers in the electro-optics field not found in other rapid-publication journals.
