Abstract

Phase unwrapping is a crucial step in laser interferometry for obtaining accurate physical measurement of object. To reduce the impact of speckle noise on wrapped phase during actual measurement and improve the subsequent measurement accuracy, a multi-feature fusion phase unwrapping method for different speckle noises named MFR-Net is proposed in this paper. The network is composed of a front-end multi-module filter processing layer and a back-end network with dilated convolution and coordinate attention mechanism. By reducing random phase differences introduced by different levels of noise, the network enhances its capability to extract spatial features such as gradient information between pixels under speckle noise, so that it successfully unwraps the wrapped phase with different speckle noises and accurately recovers the real phase information. Taking the wrapped phases with multiplicative speckle noise and additive random noise as dataset, the results of ablation and comparison experiments show that the MFR-Net has superior unwrapped results. Under three different levels of speckle noise, the average values of MSE, SSIM, PSNR and AU for MFR-Net are at least improved by 84.80 %, 10.99 %, 29.00 % and 7.72 %, respectively, compared to PDVQG, TIE, DLPU and VURNet algorithms. When the standard deviation of speckle noise varies continuously in the range [1.0, 2.0], the average values of four indexes reaches 0.12 rad, 0.91, 31.80 dB and 99.96 %, respectively, indicating the stronger robustness of MFR-Net. In addition, the phase step unwrapping is performed by MFR-Net. Compared to DLPU and VURNet, MFR-Net method reduced MSE by 80 % and 87.35 %, respectively, demonstrating the outstanding generalization capability. The proposed MFR-Net can realize the correct phase unwrapping under different speckle noises. It may be applied in laser interferometry applications such as digital holography and interferometric synthetic aperture radar.
