Abstract:  Aiming at the problem of poor realtime performance of serial phase unwrapping algorithms for large amounts of data，a parallel algorithm of phase unwrapping based on GPU was designed.Firstly，the feasibility of typical serial unwrapping algorithm on GPU was analyzed，and then an unwrapping algorithm suitable for GPU parallel acceleration was designed.Finally，the parallel algorithm of phase unwrapping based on GPU was simulated and verified，and the test results show that：on the basis of ensuring the correctness of unwrapping，the parallel algorithm of phase unwrapping based on GPU is better than the traditional CPU serial unwrapping algorithm，and the acceleration ratio is about 3.5.The acceleration ratio of the parallel algorithm of phase unwrapping based on GPU is about 63 times compared with the serial algorithm of phase unwrapping based on GPU.
