Background:

  • Phase-shifting interferometry (PSI) is susceptible to phase shift errors.
  • These errors create correlations between background intensity and fringe data.
  • Accurate phase shift estimation is crucial for reliable phase recovery in PSI.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a blind phase shift estimation algorithm for PSI.
  • To enable simultaneous calculation of phases and phase shifts from three or more interferograms.
  • To improve the accuracy of phase recovery in the presence of phase shift errors.

Main Methods:

  • Utilizing cross-power spectrum analysis to measure correlations induced by phase shift errors.
  • Developing an objective function based on the cross-power spectrum.
