Simultaneous unwrapping and low pass filtering of continuous phase maps based on autoregressive phase model and wrapped Kalman filtering

Pramod Rastogi, Rishikesh Dilip Kulkarni

We propose a simultaneous noise filtering and phase unwrapping algorithm. Spatial evolution of phase is modeled as an autoregressive Gaussian Markov random field. Accordingly, phase value at a pixel is related to phase values at surrounding pixels in a pro ...

Measurement of Displacement and Its Derivatives from a Phase Fringe Pattern

Pramod Rastogi, Rishikesh Dilip Kulkarni

Noting the fact that the phase and phase derivatives carry the information on the mechanical deformation in optical interferometric measurements techniques, we propose a noise robust fringe analysis technique for the simultaneous estimation of unwrapped ph ...

Monogenic Filtering Based Automatic Defect Detection from a Single Fringe Pattern

Pramod Rastogi, Rishikesh Dilip Kulkarni

We propose a fringe analysis algorithm for the automatic detection of defects from a single fringe pattern (FP). Typically, the surface defects exhibit high fringe density areas in the FP. Consequently, high fringe density regions can be utilized as a sign ...

Two-step phase shifting interferometry based on orientation selective monogenic filtering

Pramod Rastogi, Rishikesh Dilip Kulkarni

We propose a phase step estimation algorithm in a two-step phase shifting interferometry setup based on orientation selective adaptive monogenic filtering (AMF). Initially, the AMF algorithm is used for the fringe pattern normalization. A minor modificatio ...

Two-step phase demodulation algorithm based on quadratic phase parameter estimation using state space analysis

Pramod Rastogi, Rishikesh Dilip Kulkarni

We propose a noise robust two-step phase shifting algorithm for the evaluation of random and unknown phase step. In this algorithm, the phase within a small size two-dimensional window around a user selected pixel in an interferogram is approximated as a q ...

Direct unwrapped phase estimation in phase shifting interferometry using Levenberg-Marquardt algorithm

Pramod Rastogi, Rishikesh Dilip Kulkarni

An algorithm for the direct unwrapped phase estimation from the linearly phase shifted interferograms is presented. The temporal fringe intensity along each pixel is represented as a function of fringe amplitude, phase step and the searched phase. These pa ...

Local-polynomial-approximation-based phase unwrapping using state space analysis

Pramod Rastogi, Rishikesh Dilip Kulkarni

A new method of phase unwrapping is proposed for the absolute phase estimation based on the first-order polynomial phase approximation within a symmetric window generated around each pixel. The accurate estimation of polynomial coefficients is performed by ...
