Abstract:
In this paper, we present a correlation-based imaging technique in a single-pixel imaging scheme using Hadamard basis illumination. The Hadamard basis, which has the characteristics of a two-bit value {−1, 1} and sparsity in its transformed domain, has been used in the illumination patterns and successfully utilized for imaging the incoherent target. It gives image reconstruction even in low-light conditions. Such deterministic patterns also help to solve the problem of large numbers of measurements in single-pixel imaging, and hence simplify the experimental implementation. Furthermore, to compare the quality of imaging with Hadamard basis patterns, we also compare imaging with Fourier basis patterns and simulation results of both methods, namely Hadamard and Fourier basis, are presented.
