Download or read book Improving Imaging Through Turbulence Via Aperture Partitioning written by and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 14 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Speckle imaging techniques make it possible to do high-resolution imaging through the turbulent atmosphere by collecting and processing a large number of short-exposure frames, each of which effectively freezes the atmosphere. In severe seeing condition, when the characteristic scale of atmospheric fluctuations is much smaller than the diameter of the telescope, the reconstructed image is dominated by?turbulence noise? caused by redundant baselines in the pupil. I describe a generalization of aperture masking interferometery that dramatically improves imaging performance in this regime. The approach is to partition the aperture into annuli, form the bispectra of the focal plane images formed from each annulus, and recombine them into a synthesized bispectrum form which the object may be retrieved. This may be implemented using multiple cameras and special mirrors, or with a single camera and a suitable pupil phase mask. I report results from simulations as well as experimental results using telescopes at the Air Force Research Lab's Maui Space Surveillance Site.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We describe a generalization of aperture masking interferometry that improves the speckle imaging performance of a telescope in the large D=r0 regime while making use of all collected photons. Our approach is to partition the aperture into annuli, form the bispectra of the focal plane images formed from each annulus, recombine them into a synthesized bispectrum, and use that to retrieve the object. This may be implemented using multiple cameras and special mirrors, or with a single camera and a suitable pupil phase mask.

Download or read book Adaptive Optics for Astronomical Telescopes written by John W. Hardy and published by Oxford Optical and Imaging Sci. This book was released on 1998 with total page 452 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book by one of the leaders in adaptive optics covers the fundamental theory and then describes in detail how this technology can be applied to large ground-based telescopes to compensate for the effects of atmospheric turbulence. It includes information on basic adaptive optics components and technology, and has chapters devoted to atmospheric turbulence, optical image structure, laser beacons, and overall system design. The chapter on system design is particularly detailed and includes performance estimation and optimization.

Download or read book Phonocardiography Signal Processing written by Abbas K. Abbas and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-05-31 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The auscultation method is an important diagnostic indicator for hemodynamic anomalies. Heart sound classification and analysis play an important role in the auscultative diagnosis. The term phonocardiography refers to the tracing technique of heart sounds and the recording of cardiac acoustics vibration by means of a microphone-transducer. Therefore, understanding the nature and source of this signal is important to give us a tendency for developing a competent tool for further analysis and processing, in order to enhance and optimize cardiac clinical diagnostic approach. This book gives the reader an inclusive view of the main aspects in phonocardiography signal processing. Table of Contents: Introduction to Phonocardiography Signal Processing / Phonocardiography Acoustics Measurement / PCG Signal Processing Framework / Phonocardiography Wavelets Analysis / Phonocardiography Spectral Analysis / PCG Pattern Classification / Special Application of Phonocardiography / Phonocardiography Acoustic Imaging and Mapping

This book was released on 2006-04-11 with total page 673 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The request to organize under its patronage at Poitiers in 1998 a Symposium entitled “Advanced Optical Methods and Applications in Solid Mechanics” by the International Union of Theoretical and Applied Mechanics (I.U.T.A.M.) was well received for the following two reasons. First, for nearly 20 years no Symposium devoted to optical methods in solids had been organized. Second, recent advances in digital image processing provided many new applications which are described in the following. We have the honour to present here the proceedings of this Symposium. st th The Symposium took place from august 31 to September 4 at the Institut International de la Prospective in Futuroscope near Poitiers. A significant number of internationally renowned specialists had expressed their wish to participate in this meeting. The Scientific Committee proposed 16 general conferences and selected 33 regular lectures and 17 poster presentations. Papers corresponding to posters are not differentiated in the proceedings from those that were presented orally. It is worth noting that a total of 80 participants, representing 16 countries, registered for this symposium.. The Scientific Committee deserves praise for attracting a significant number of young scientists, both as authors and as participants. Let us add our warm acknowledgements to Professor J.W. Dally and to Professor A.S. Kobayashi who, throughout the symposium preparation time, brought us valuable help.
