description

Some image quality parameters, such as the Strehl ratio and the optical transfer function, are analysed in the generalized phase-space, or x-p domain, of the fractional Fourier transform associated with a modified one-dimensional pupil function. Some experimental results together with computer simulations are performed which illustrate the tolerance to defocus of different apertures.
