In this paper, to reveal more truths of plenoptic camera imaging, we present the wavefront analysis for the plenoptic camera imaging from the angle of physical optics but not from the ray tracing model of geometric optics. Specifically, the wavefront imaging model of a plenoptic camera is analyzed and simulated by scalar diffraction theory and the depth estimation is redescribed based on physical optics. We simulate a set of raw plenoptic images of an object scene, thereby validating the analysis and derivations and the difference between the imaging analysis methods based on geometric optics and physical optics are also shown in simulations.展开更多

Based on scalar diffraction theory, the channel bits parameters of the multi-dimensional optical storage were optimized, and the linear and nonlinear signals were analyzed accurately. Therefore, the format of the multi-dimensional optical disc was obtained, which makes the detection of readout signal easier. With respect to servo, coding and readout physics parameter of channel, the multi-dimensional optical disc is compatible with traditional disc such as Blu-ray disc （BD）. Also, the novel multi-dimensional optical storage is able to achieve a doubled density and a ten-fold readout data rate compared with traditional optical discs.展开更多
