Abstract
We report on a new digital signal processing technique that reduces speckle
in reconstructions of digital holograms. This is achieved by convolving the
three dimensional intensity pattern (the intensity of the propagated DH at
a series of different distances) with a 3D point spread function in all three
dimensions (x,y,z ). It is based on the fact that the addition of different
independent speckle images on an intensity basis reduces the speckle content.
We provide quantitative results in terms of speckle index and resolution, and
show that filtering in the z direction has the added benefit of an increase the
depth of focus of the digital hologram reconstruction.
