Abstract :
This paper analyses the effect of noisy near-field amplitude data on the phase retrieval algorithm. Additive white Gaussian noise is applied on the signal. Signal-to-noise ratios between 3 dB and 60 dB are considered. It´ll be shown that using the Iterative Fourier Transform the far-field data can be obtained even under low signal-to-noise ratio.
