Myopic Deconvolution of Adaptive Optics Images by use of Object and Point-Spread Function Power Spectra: Comment.
It is suggested here that the lack of total image correction that is typical in adaptive optics (AO) imaging can be attributed in part to blur derived from small-angle scatter of light by aerosols, known also as the adjacency effect, especially as it is a well-established fact that such atmospheric blur is dominant in satellite imagery and the shape of the modulation transfer function after AO correction is strikingly similar to the unique shape of the aerosol modulation transfer function. Further investigation of AO systems to confirm this would aid in and improve image restoration.
