Statistical property of the complex analytic signal of white-light speckle pattern applied to micro-displacement measurement

摘要

Under the assumption of Gaussian random process, we discuss the first and the second order statistical properties of the complex amplitude of analytic signal of the white-light speckle pattern. We derive the autocorrelation function of the pseudo phase. Based on these results, we show mathematically that the proposed signal domain phase-only correlation (SD-POC) has advantage over the conventional intensity-based correlation techniques in its performance of micro-displacement measurement. We also present experimental results that support the theory.
