This paper describes the activities related to a feasibility study for an Earth observation optical payload, operating in the medium infrared, based on super-resolution and compressive sensing techniques. The presented activities are running in the framework of the ASI project SISSI, aiming to improve ground spatial resolution and mitigate saturation/blooming effects. The core of the payload is a spatial light modulator (SLM): a bidimensional array of micromirrors electronically actuated. Thanks to compressive sensing approach, the proposed payload eliminates the compression board, saving mass, memory and energy consumption.

Recently, the super-oscillation phenomenon has attracted attention because of its ability to super-resolve unlabelled objects in the far-field. Previous synthesis of super-oscillatory point-spread functions used the Chebyshev patterns where all sidelobes are equal. In this work, an approach is introduced to generate super-oscillatory Taylor-like point-spread functions that have tapered sidelobes. The proposed method is based on the Schelkunoff’s super-directive antenna theory. This approach enables the super-resolution, the first sidelobe level and the tapering rate of the sidelobes to be controlled. Finally, we present the design of several imaging experiments using a spatial light modulator as an advanced programmable grating to form the Taylor-like super-oscillatory point-spread functions and demonstrate their superiority over the Chebyshev ones in resolving the objects of two apertures and of a mask with the letter E.
