With the existing deep learning algorithms, it is difficult to restore the highly blurred solar speckle images taken by Yunnan Observatories, and it is difficult to reconstruct the high-frequency information of images. In order to solve the problems, a deblurring method for restoring the solar speckle images and recovering the high-frequency information of images based on Generative Adversarial Network (GAN) and gradient information was proposed. The proposed method was consisted of one generator and two discriminators. Firstly, the image multi-scale features were obtained by the generator with the Feature Pyramid Network (FPN) framework, and these features were input into the gradient branch hierarchically to capture the smaller details in the form of gradient map, and the solar speckle image with high-frequency information was reconstructed by combining the gradient branch results and the FPN results. Then, based on the conventional adversarial discriminator, another discriminator was added to ensure the gradient map generated by the gradient branch more realistic. Finally, a joint training loss including pixel content loss, perceptual loss and adversarial loss was introduced to guide the model to perform high-resolution reconstruction of solar speckle images. Experimental results show that, compared with the existing deep learning deblurring method, the proposed method with image preprocessing has stronger ability to recover the high-frequency information, and significantly improves the Peak Signal-to-Noise Ratio (PSNR) and Structural SIMilarity (SSIM) indicators, reaching 27.801 0 dB and 0.851 0 respectively. The proposed method can meet the needs for high-resolution reconstruction of solar observation images.
