The Ideal

Many of the metrics developed for informational imaging are useful in automotive imaging, since many of the tasks – for example, object detection and identification – are similar. This work discusses sensor characterization parameters for the Ideal Observer SNR model, and elaborates on the noise power spectrum. It presents cross-correlation analysis results for matched-filter detection of a tribar pattern in sets of resolution target images that were captured with three image sensors over a range of illumination levels. Lastly, the work compares the crosscorrelation data to predictions made by the Ideal Observer Model and demonstrates good agreement between the two methods on relative evaluation of detection capabilities.

While self mixing interferometry(SMI) has proven to be suitable for displacement measurement and other sensing applications,its characteristic self mixing signal shape is strongly governed by the non-linear phase equation which forms relation between perturbed and unperturbed phase of self mixing laser.Therefore, while it is desirable for robust estimation of displacement of moving target, the algorithms to achieve this must have an objective strategy which can be achieved by understanding the characteristic of extracting knowledge of perturbed phase from unperturbed phase. Therefore, it has been proved and shown that such strategy must not involve sole methods where perturbed phase is continuous function of unperturbed phase (e.g:Taylor series or fixed point methods) or through successive displacements (e.g: variations of Gauss Seidal method). Subset of this strategy is to perform spectral filtering of perturbed phase followed by perturbative or homotopic deformation. A less computationally expensive approach of this strategy is adopted to achieve displacement with mean error of 62.2nm covering all feedback regimes, when coupling factor 'C' is unknown.<br>

This work fits the measured in-pixel source-follower noise in a CMOS Quanta Image Sensor (QIS) prototype chip using physics-based 1/f noise models, rather than the widely-used fitting model for analog designers. This paper discusses the different origins of 1/f noise in QIS devices and includes correlated double sampling (CDS). The modelling results based on the Hooge mobility fluctuation, which uses one adjustable parameter, match the experimental measurements, including the variation in noise from room temperature to –70 °C. This work provides useful information for the implementation of QIS in scientific applications and suggests that even lower read noise is attainable by further cooling and may be applicable to other CMOS analog circuits and CMOS image sensors.
