The relative locations and the number of light point pixels on an SLM affect the imaging quality. Usually, SLMs are two-dimensional arrays which are drawn uniformly or are randomly sparse. However, the patterns formed by a uniform array are periodic when the number of light point pixels is small, and the images formed by a random sparse array suffer from large background noise. In this paper, we introduce a coprime array based on the Eisenstein integer to optimize the light point pixel arrangement. A coprime array is widely used as a microwave radar receiving array, but less implemented in optics. This is the first time that a coprime array based on Eisenstein integer has been introduced in computational ghost imaging. A coprime array with this structure enhances the imaging quality when limited measurements are recorded, and it reduces background noise and avoids periodicity. All results are verified by numerical simulation.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/s20164508","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2020,8,12]],"date-time":"2020-08-12T09:14:49Z","timestamp":1597223689000},"page":"4508","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":3,"title":["Computational Ghost Imaging Based on Light Source Formed by Coprime Array"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"20","author":[{"given":"Yapeng","family":"Zhan","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, National University of Defense Technology, Changsha 410073, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jiying","family":"Liu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, National University of Defense Technology, Changsha 410073, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Zelong","family":"Wang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, National University of Defense Technology, Changsha 410073, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Qi","family":"Yu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, National University of Defense Technology, Changsha 410073, China"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2020,8,12]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"7916","DOI":"10.1364\/OE.17.007916","article-title":"Ghost imaging through turbulent atmosphere","volume":"17","author":"Cheng","year":"2009","journal-title":"Opt.
