The invention discloses a de-hazing method based on dual-tree complex wavelet and belongs to the technical field of image processing. The method comprises the following steps: to begin with, obtaining approximate value of atmospheric environment light through dual-tree complex wavelet transform; then, deducing a nonlinear normalized atmospheric transmissivity graph by utilizing an improved dark channel, and then, estimating a haze image; and finally, removing the haze to form a haze-free image according to the original image. The method has a better de-hazing effect for natural images of uniform haze and the like.
