Deconvolution01:20

Deconvolution

165
Deconvolution, also known as inverse filtering, is the process of extracting the impulse response from known input and output signals. This technique is vital in scenarios where the system's characteristics are unknown, and they must be inferred from the observable signals.
Deconvolution involves several mathematical techniques to derive the impulse response. One common approach is polynomial division. In this method, the input and output sequences are treated as coefficients of...

Boundary Conditions: Lossless Lines

98
Consider a single-phase, two-wire, lossless transmission line terminated by an impedance at the receiving end and a source with Thevenin voltage and impedance at the sending end. The line, with length, has a surge impedance and wave velocity determined by the line's inductance and capacitance.
At the receiving end, the boundary condition states that the voltage equals the product of the receiving-end impedance and current. This relationship is expressed as a function of the incident and...

Reconstruction of Signal using Interpolation

209
Signal processing techniques are essential for accurately converting continuous signals to digital formats and vice versa. When a continuous signal is sampled with a period T, the resulting sampled signal exhibits replicas of the original spectrum in the frequency domain, spaced at intervals equal to the sampling frequency. To handle this sampled signal, a zero-order hold method can be applied, which creates a piecewise constant signal by retaining each sample's value until the next...

Reducing Line Loss01:18

Reducing Line Loss

156
In a three-phase circuit, line loss is an indicator of energy dissipated as heat due to the resistance of transmission lines. To address this, incorporating transformers into the system—a step-up transformer at the source and a step-down transformer at the load—is a strategic solution. Two three-phase transformers are introduced to improve this.
With a step-up transformer at the source, the voltage is increased, thereby reducing the current in the transmission lines since power loss...

Differential Leveling01:12

Differential Leveling

189
Differential leveling is a precise method in surveying used to determine the elevation difference between two points. Its primary goal is to establish accurate vertical measurements to create level surfaces or grade lines critical for designing and constructing infrastructures such as roads, bridges, and buildings.The procedure for differential leveling begins with setting up and leveling the instrument at a point where the benchmark can be seen. The level rod is held on the benchmark (BM), and...

Continuous -time Fourier Transform01:11

Continuous -time Fourier Transform

321
The Fourier series is instrumental in representing periodic functions, offering a powerful method to decompose such functions into a sum of sinusoids. This technique, however, necessitates modification when applied to nonperiodic functions. Consider a pulse-train waveform consisting of a series of rectangular pulses. When these pulses have a finite period, they can be accurately represented by a Fourier series. Yet, as the period approaches infinity, resulting in a single, isolated pulse, the...

    Area of Science:

    • Biomedical Optics
    • Medical Imaging
    • Signal Processing

    Background:

    • Optical coherence tomography (OCT) images suffer from sidelobe artifacts caused by spectral non-uniformity and leakage.
    • Conventional methods for reducing these artifacts often compromise axial resolution or require accurate system point spread function (PSF) estimation.
    • Inaccurate PSF estimation in deconvolution techniques leads to a loss of image details.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To introduce a novel framework, multi-shaping sparse-continuous reconstruction (MSSCR), for OCT image artifact suppression.
    • To achieve sidelobe suppression without PSF measurement or estimation.
    • To preserve axial resolution while effectively reducing artifacts in OCT images.

    Main Methods:

    • Developed a framework combining spectral multi-shaping and iterative image reconstruction.
    • Incorporated sparse-continuous priors into the reconstruction process.
    • Applied the MSSCR framework to OCT images to address sidelobe artifacts.

    Main Results:

    • The MSSCR framework successfully suppressed sidelobe artifacts in OCT images.
    • Sidelobe suppression exceeding 8 dB was achieved.
    • Axial resolution was effectively preserved, unlike conventional methods.

    Conclusions:

    • MSSCR offers a novel approach to mitigate sidelobe artifacts in OCT imaging.
    • The method eliminates the need for PSF measurement or estimation, simplifying the process.
    • MSSCR shows significant potential for improving the quality of OCT images.
