Abstract
Digital holography is often combined with image sharpening for wavefront estimation and correction, and this combination has received recent attention for many imaging and sensing applications. A significant obstacle for digital holography and image sharpening in high-speed real-time applications is the fact that the process is computationally intensive, requiring iterative virtual wavefront propagation and hill-climbing algorithms to optimize sharpness criteria. This paper introduces a method for accelerating dynamic digital holography and image sharpening by wavefront prediction. The approach here integrates optimal state-space prediction filters with digital holography and image sharpening to short-circuit the computationally intensive process of virtual wavefront propagation and sharpness optimization.
