Abstract:
A partial-aperture imaging system, including one or more partial-aperture units, each including) one or more partial apertures disposed over a periphery of a circular area representing a full aperture having, each partial aperture being directed towards scenery, while the total area of the partial apertures spans only a portion of the area of the full aperture; one CPM for each of the partial apertures, the CPM receiving, one at a time, from a respective partial aperture at least one point-object image and at least one complex-object image, the CPM modulating by a same random code the phases of pixels of one or more pairs of the point-object and complex-object images, to form PORIs and CORIs; an imager for optically receiving the PORI—each PORI being defined as a PSF, respectively, and at least one CORI, and for storing; and a processor to form a final image.
