Wavefront Sensing by Digital Holography in Optical Sparse Aperture Imaging System

摘要

The optical sparse aperture imaging system consists of several small apertures for high resolution imaging. The incoherent light from each small aperture will form an image together strictly at the same focal plane, while the phase error will destroy such co-phase condition. The phase error is caused by deployment of small aperture and should be diminished. We applied digital holography technology to detect the wavefront of this system. The theoretical analysis and experiment are presented to demonstrate successful reconstruction of phase error.
