Analytical expression for pixel-averaged point sources as observed by a focal plane array

Abstract

A closed-form expression is derived for pixel-averaged point source signals as observed by an imaging array. Obtaining this solution requires the probability distribution of squared Euclidean distances in two dimensions when the end points are confined to a uniformly spaced square domain. The derivation and associated expression are provided.
