Multiresponse Imaging For Improved Resolution

Images restored with resolution finer than sampling lattice. Multiresponse imaging overcomes sampling-passband constraint and critically constrained only by optical response and sensitivity of image-gathering device. Process consists of multiresponse image gathering and Wiener-matrix restoration. Image-gathering process acquires sequence of images, each with different optical response so within-pass-band and aliased signal components weighted differently. Wiener-matrix filter, in turn, unscrambles within-passband and aliased frequency components of undersampled signal and restores them up to cutoff frequency of optical response.
