Abstract

New approaches are applied to overcome the difficulty of accurate angle measurements in specklegram information processing by introducing a prism rotator for compensation and by using symmetry evaluation. Together with slit scanning and the fast Fourier transform procedure, speckle random noise has been effectively suppressed, and accurate measurements of Θ and s are achieved. The method we present makes it possible to process the specklegram information automatically. The experimental setup is described in detail. The principles and experimental curves are given.
