As AOTFs have many advantages over other spectroscopic instruments but lack spectral resolution, a procedure for resolution enhancement, composed of point spread function characterization and spectrum preprocessing and deconvolution, is proposed. Wiener, Fourierwavelet regularized (ForWaRD), Richardson-Lucy, and Wavelet-Lucy deconvolution methods were tested and their performances assessed with two deconvolution quality measures: resolution enhancement and noise amplification. It was shown that the proposed spectral resolution enhancement is feasible and gives good results for line spectra and highly dynamic spectra.", pages = "1265-1273", url = "http://www.ingentaconnect.com/content/sas/sas/2010/00000064/00000011/art00015", doi = "doi:10.1366/000370210793334945", keyword = "DECONVOLUTION, SPECTROMETRY, HYPERSPECTRAL IMAGING, ACOUSTO-OPTICAL TUNABLE FILTERS, AOTF, RESOLUTION ENHANCEMENT, WIENER DECONVOLUTION, FORWARD DECONVOLUTION, RICHARDSON-LUCY DECONVOLUTION, WAVELET-LUCY DECONVOLUTION" }
