Abstract
INTRODUCTION
Deconvolution from Wave-Front Sensing (DWFS) has been investigated both through laboratory and field experiments as a method to produce high resolution images from ground based telescopes.1,2,3 This technique has sometimes been referred to as Speckle Holography. With this technique a short exposure focal plane image is recorded simultaneously with an estimate of the atmospheric wave-front. The wave-front estimate is used to calculate an optical transfer function (OTF) for the atmosphere. This OTF estimate is then used in a deconvolution algorithm to correct the focal plane image. A synoptic sketch of a DWFS instrument is shown in figure 1.
