Semiclassical theory of speckle correlations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Coherent wave propagation in random media results in a characteristic speckle pattern, with spatial intensity correlations with short-range and long-range behavior. Here, we show how the speckle correlation function can be obtained from a ray picture for

Optical Energy Variability Induced by Speckle: The Cases of MERLIN and CHARM-F IPDA Lidar

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2019
In the context of the FrenchGerman space lidar mission MERLIN (MEthane Remote LIdar missioN) dedicated to the determination of the atmospheric methane content, an end-to-end mission simulator is being developed.

Statistical Region Based Segmentation of Ultrasound Images [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Segmentation of ultrasound images is a challenging problem due to speckle, which corrupts the image and can result in weak or missing image boundaries, poor signal to noise ratio, and diminished contrast resolution.

Beamforming and Speckle Reduction Using Neural Networks

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Ultrasonics, Ferroelectrics and Frequency Control, 2019
With traditional beamforming methods, ultrasound B-mode images contain speckle noise caused by the random interference of subresolution scatterers. In this paper, we present a framework for using neural networks to beamform ultrasound channel signals ...

Ten Years of Speckle Interferometry at SOAR [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Since 2007, close binary and multiple stars are observed by speckle interferometry at the 4.1 m Southern Astrophysical Research (SOAR) telescope. The HRCam instrument, observing strategy and planning, data processing and calibration methods, developed ...

SAR Image Despeckle With CNN Using a Novel Logarithmic Discrete Cosine Transform-Based Loss

open access: yesIEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing
The coherent nature of imaging in synthetic aperture radar (SAR) inevitably gives rise to speckle noise, a challenge exacerbated by the constrained bandwidth and limited look angles.

Photon-Counting Security Tagging and Verification Using Optically Encoded QR Codes

open access: yesIEEE Photonics Journal, 2014
We propose an optical security method for object authentication using photon-counting encryption implemented with phase encoded QR codes. By combining the full phase double-random-phase encryption with photon-counting imaging method and applying an ...

Speckle tracking approaches in speckle sensing [PDF]

open access: yesSPIE Proceedings, 2017
This paper reports some initial investigations into the application of feature tracking algorithms as an alternative data processing method for speckle correlation sensors capable of determining both the speckle pattern translation and rotation. The accuracy of translation measurements using the feature tracking approach was found to be similar to that

Adaptive Speckle Imaging Interferometry: a new technique for the analysis of microstructure dynamics, drying processes and coating formation

open access: yes, 2007
We describe an extension of multi-speckle diffusing wave spectroscopy adapted to follow the non-stationary microscopic dynamics in drying films and coatings in a very reactive way and with a high dynamic range.

Spatially adaptive polarimetric image despeckling using bandelet transform

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Remote Sensing, 2020
Polarimetric Synthetic Aperture Radar (PolSAR) imaging extended SAR applications by exploring the polarimetric properties of the target scatterers. Similar to SAR images, PolSAR images are prone to multiplicative speckle noise due to its coherent imaging
