    This study introduces an iterative algorithm to reduce speckle noise in phase-shifted patterns. Repeating the algorithm significantly improves phase information and signal-to-noise ratio.

    Area of Science:

    • Optical metrology
    • Interferometry
    • Digital image processing

    Background:

    • Speckle interference patterns are common in optical measurements.
    • Speckle noise degrades the quality of phase information.
    • Existing algorithms may struggle with noise reduction.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To develop an iterative algorithm for speckle noise suppression.
    • To enhance the accuracy of phase information extraction.
    • To improve the signal-to-noise ratio in interference patterns.

    Main Methods:

    • Locally averaging four digitized phase-shifted patterns.
    • Extracting phase information using a phase shift algorithm.
    • Reconstructing new phase-shifted patterns from the extracted phase.
