A new method is proposed in this paper to improve transverse resolution of a confocal microscope. By setting up the model of a confocal microscope system through spatiotemporal modulation with moving gratings or acousto-optical modulation without defocus distance under coherent light illumination and deducing two-dimensional coherent image formula and transfer function, simulation tests are run with or without spatiotemporal modulation to prove the effectiveness of the proposed method. Simulation results indicate the proposed method can be used to improve the transverse resolution of a confocal microscope system.
