Computational Temporal Ghost Imaging Using Intensity-Only Detection Over a Single Optical Fiber by Jiang Tang, Yongwen Tang, Kun He, Luluzi Lu, Di Zhang, Mengfan Cheng, Lei Deng, Deming Liu, Minming Zhang

“…We propose a method of computational temporal ghost imaging over a single optical fiber using simple optical intensity detection instead of coherent detection. The transfer function of a temporal ghost imaging system over a single optical fiber is derived, which is a function of the total fiber dispersion and the power density spectrum of the light source. …”
