Abstract

We propose in this paper an introduction to the wavefront coding technique for incoherent imaging. Wavefront coding introduces image processing in the conception of an imaging system. It consists in introducing controlled aberrations in the optics able to reduce, after processing, some defaults of the optical system such as defocus, chromaticity. We present the basis of wavefront coding and illustrate them on two images with different characteristics: a spoke pattern and a galaxy image.
