ABSTRACT:
The electrical cross talk in color solid-state image sensor is estimated or characterized by acquiring image data from an array of imaging cells which is a portion of a much larger array, extracting cross talk data from the acquired image data, and characterizing the cross talk based on the extracted coefficients.
