Abstract

Ringing artifacts are the main noise sources in holographic projection when the quadratic phase is introduced to suppress speckle noise. In this study, the mechanisms of ringing artifacts on reconstructed images are theoretically analyzed, which illustrates the ringing artifacts are related to the bandwidth properties of the reconstructed wave field. Based on the frequency analysis, a band-limited iterative algorithm is proposed to optimize the phase hologram in the Fresnel domain. The proposed method can effectively suppress the ringing artifacts as well as the speckle noise of the Fresnel hologram by optimizing the phase distribution with bandwidth constraint. Numerical simulations and optical experiments have been performed to validate the proposed method for providing quality reconstructions in lensless holographic projection.
