Speckle noise suppression method in a holographic display based on pixel processing

Abstract

In this paper, we propose a method to suppress the speckle noise in a holographic display based on pixel processing. Through the separation of object pixels in space, the recorded object is divided into multiple object point groups. The complex amplitude of the light field for each object point group is recorded as a sub-computer-generated hologram (sub-CGH). The phase of each pixel on a sub-CGH is optimized to generate the final sub-CGH. Therefore, the pixels of the recorded object and sub-CGH are processed. In the reconstruction process, the final sub-CGHs are loaded on the spatial light modulator sequentially. The speckle noise of the reconstructed image is suppressed by reducing the algorithm error and the overlapping area of adjacent image points. The experimental results prove the feasibility of the proposed method.
