Abstract
The variations in the values of optical transfer function with the apodisation parameter in a shaded aperture have been investigated. The OTF values have been obtained by the auto-correlation of the pupil function. It is found that, in the low frequency region, apodised systems are better than the diffraction-limited ones.
