We are aiming at realizing an ultra-high sensitivity low-noise camera with a semi-photon-counting-level CMOS image sensor and a fast lens that has an F-number much less than 1, which is hard to implement in a single-aperture optical system. The noise of CMOS image sensor is approaching the level where they can measure a single photon. However, it is difficult to further reduce the noise of all pixels because a certain part of the pixels have the large low-frequency noise called random telegraph signal (RTS) noise generated by source follower transistors. In this study, we model the sensor noise and photon shot noise of each pixel as a probability distribution function based on the measured read noise, where RTS is included. By using the maximum likelihood estimate (MLE), we attempted to decrease both RTS noise and photon shot noise. In the simulation, we confirmed that the MLE shows better noise reduction capability compared with simple averaging and selective averaging. |
