We numerically investigate the role of quantum fluctuations in superresolution of optical objects. First, we confirm that when quantum fluctuations are not taken into account, one can easily improve the resolution by one order of magnitude beyond the diffraction limit. Then we investigate the standard quantum limit of superresolution which is achieved for illumination of an object by a light wave in a coherent state. We demonstrate that this limit can be beyond the diffraction limit. Finally, we show that further improvement of superresolution beyond the standard quantum limit is possible using the object illumination by a multimode squeezed light.
