Abstract
Analysis of a specific wavelength band of a video signal is an old research field. However, studies on the analysis of signals having the characteristics of a specific wavelength band or the generation of samples have been conducted actively in recent years. In this paper, we analyze the signal of digital halftoned image. The interpretation of halftoning in terms of signals was first made by Ulichney. We have come to the view that the signal characteristics between pixels used for half toning are good for blue noise. Lau has developed a halftoning method that uses green-noise characteristics by using output-dependent feedback as an error diffusion method. Jho has developed a method for producing halftoned images using a reaction diffusion model. In this paper, we analyze reaction diffusion halftoning in terms of signal to show green noise and compare it with existing green noise half tone.
