2.1.4 Algorithm summary

The overall algorithm is now summarised into its most salient steps.

• The measured image is smoothed in real space using a mask operation (Section 2.1.1).
• The Fourier transform of the smoothed image is found.
• The Fourier transform of the deconvolution term, is found (Section 2.1.2).
• The smoothed image is then deconvoluted in Fourier space according to the required weightings (Section 2.1.3 and Equations 10 to 12).
• Finally, the inverse Fourier transform is taken to yield the restored image in real space.
