Cramer-Rao bound and phase-diversity blind deconvolution performance versus diversity polynomials.

Information theoretic bounds on the estimated Zernike coefficients for various diversity phase functions are presented. We show that, in certain cases, defocus diversity may yield a higher Cramer-Rao lower bound (CRLB) than some other diversity phase functions. Using simulated images to evaluate the performance of the phase-diversity algorithm, we find that, for an extended scene and defocus diversity, the phase-diversity algorithm achieves the CRLB for known objects. Furthermore, the phase-diversity algorithm achieves the CRLB by a factor of approximately 2 for unknown objects.

Practical issues in wave-front sensing by use of phase diversity.

We present the results of the phase-diversity algorithm applied to simulated and laboratory data. We show that the exact amount of defocus distance does not need to be known exactly for the phase-diversity algorithm on extended scene imaging. We determine, through computer simulation, the optimum diversity distance for various scene types. Using laboratory data, we compare the aberrations recovered with the phase-diversity algorithm and those measured with a Fizeau interferometer that uses a He-Ne laser. The two aberration sets agree with a Strehl ratio of over 0.9. The contrast of the recovered object is found to be ten times that of the raw image.
