Robust compressive multimode fiber imaging against bending with enhanced depth of field.

Imaging through single multimode fiber prevails its counterpart using single mode fiber bundle on spatial resolution limit and minimum radius. Current multimode fiber imaging suffers from fussy calibration, which can be reduced by recent developed compressive sensing scheme [ [L. V. Amitonova, Opt. Lett. 43, 5427 (2018)]. Experiments demonstrate improvement on depth of field by more than three orders of magnitude, together with robustness against macro fiber bending, which is vital to endoscopic applications.
