Boreman G.D. Modulation Transfer Function in Optical and Electro-Optical Systems
SPIE PRESS. A Publication of SPIE - The Inteational Society for
Optical Engineering Bellingham, Washington USA, 2001, 118 p.
Modulation transfer function (MTF) is a metric used to specify
image quality. It is particularly useful in analysis of situations
where several subsystems are combined. This Tutorial Text provides
a background in the application of MTF techniques to performance
specification, estimation, and characterization of optical and
electro-optical systems, and is an outgrowth of a course taught by
the author since 1987. This book covers basic MTF terms and
concepts and addresses more subtle issues such as MTF and Strehl
ratio, detector MTF, sampling MTF and aliasing, electronics MTF and
MTF area (MTFA), bar-target response, point-spread function (PSF),
line-spread function (LSF), edge-spread function (ESF), and
increasing signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) in MTF measurements. The
author includes numerous "back-of-the-envelope" examples.
Modulation Transfer Function in Optical and Electro-Optical Systems
is intended for readers with a preparation equivalent to a
bachelor's degree in electrical or optical engineering and some
background in Fourier concepts. Engineers, scientists, and managers
who must understand and apply the basic concepts of MTF to
specifying, estimating, or characterizing performance will find it
valuable. Contents: MTF in optical systems. MTF in electro-optical
systems. Other MTF contributions. MTF measurement methods.
