Abstract

AbstractThe hologram of a single‐point object is called a Fresnel zone plate (FZP), and the hologram of a general object is represented as a superposition of FZP's. Since a point image can be reconstructed from the FZP at a reasonable location, there can be considered an image reconstruction method based on FZP. This paper proposes the FZP sampled hologram and the corresponding two‐dimensional image reconstruction method. The FZP sampled hologram is sampled with small interval at the central part and large interval at the periphery. By multiplying the phase function with the one‐dimensional hologram and performing the Fourier transform, the two‐dimensional image distribution can be determined for the azimuth and range. By analyzing the point‐image distribution, it is seen that the azimuth resolution of 6 mrad is obtained for the millimeter wave frequency of 35 GHz and the hologram length of 25 cm. It is seen also from the distribution that there exist side peaks of −4.8 dB at an azimuth angle of ± 11 mrad apart from the peak. An experiment was made for the millimeter‐wave holography with a simple object, and a satisfactory agreement with the theory was observed.
