Restoration and frequency analysis of smeared CCD images.
Image smear caused by frame transfer in CCD detectors is considered in terms of an image restoration problem, and an efficient method of achieving smear removal is described and demonstrated. A frequency analysis of the image smearing process identifies optimal regimes for the operation of the CCD.
