    Retrieved ghost images of the rough object with 10,000 measurements under different degrees of surface roughness. From (a) to (c), the value of mesh number N is 240, 360, and 600, respectively. Black solid curves in the lower area show the normalized horizontal sections of the images. (d) Dependence of the corresponding SNR on the mesh number N. The incident angle is θi=π/4, and the reflective angle is θo=0.
