DeutschSpace–bandwidth product
The space–bandwidth product (SBP) is a measure of the information-carrying capacity of an optical system.[1][2] It is the product of the spatial extent (size) of the system and the bandwidth (frequency range) over which it operates.
Holography
[edit]In holography, the space–bandwidth product determines the resolution and quality of the reconstructed holographic image. The SBP sets a limit on the amount of information that can be recorded and reconstructed.
In digital holography, the SBP of a holographic imaging system can be calculated by analyzing at the recorded interference pattern.[3]
The SBP is directly related to the size of the hologram and the range of frequencies (or colors) that can be captured.
Microscopy
[edit]The SBP of a modern microscope can reach up to tens of megapixels. However, image sensors that are used typically are only a few megapixels, so the majority of optical information in the system is undetected.[2]
