Abstract
One of the most desired tools of image processing is spatial filtering. The Fourier filters in a 4f system can be used to detect the edges, enhance the contrast and to remove the noise so as to provide a better output image. Optical vortex has been used as a spatial filter to perform isotropic edge enhancement [1], the fractional and shifted vortex filters are used for selective edge enhancement [2,3] and anisotropic as well as shifted anisotropic vortex filters are used to get controlled orientation selective edge enhancement [4,5].
