Iterative Filtered Ghost Imaging

It is generally believed that,in ghost imaging,there has to be a compromise between resolution and visibility.Here we propose and demonstrate an iterative filtered ghost imaging scheme whereby a super-resolution image of a grayscale object is achieved,while at the same time the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and visibility are greatly improved,without adding complexity.The dependence of the SNR,visibility,and resolution on the number of iterations is also investigated and discussed.Moreover,with the use of compressed sensing the sampling number can be reduced to less than 1％ of the Nyquist limit,while maintaining image quality with a resolution that can exceed the Rayleigh diffraction bound by more than a factor of 10.
