Abstract
This paper presents a circularly symmetric point spread function (PSF) estimation technique for a fully digital auto-focusing system. The proposed algorithm provides realistic, unsupervised PSF estimation by establishing the relationship between one-dimensional ideal step response and two-dimensional circularly symmetric PSF.
