Abstract

The analysis of wavefront-coding systems is explored via the joint fractional Fourier signal representation (JFF) of the pupil function. The properties of the JFF of the pupil function are presented and are shown to be revealing with regard to the system response to defocus. Numerical examples that illustrate the properties are given.
