Abstract
Four kinds of gain and offset correction coefficients that are used to correct the nonuniformity between pixels are discussed. And their correction performance has been compared by performing image correction. using the correction coefficients calculated, on the real image data obtained from a newly fabricated camera electronics system. The performance of the correction coefficients depends in general on the number of the light input levels used to obtain the reference image. The result shows that, as expected obviously, when only two light input levles are used to obtain the reference image, even though its correction coefficients are relatively easily calculated, the correction performance is relatively poor. And with the number of light inputs increased to a value of larger than two, the correction performance is improved. It is noted, however, no Significant performance difference is found between the different correction coefficients employed.
