Abstract
A noise-robust extension of iterative phase retrieval algorithms that does not need to assume a noise model is proposed. It works by adapting the intensity constraints using the reconstructed object. Using a proof-of-principle ptychographic experiment with visible light and a spatial light modulator to create an object, the proposed method is tested and it compares favorably to the Extended Ptychographic Iterative Engine (ePIE) with reduced step size. The method is general, so it can also be applied to other iterative reconstruction schemes such as phase retrieval using focus variation.
