ABSTRACT
In optical systems, diffraction limits significantly impact spot simulations. This study addresses this problem by applying the Fourier transform to calculate spots in imaging systems. Typically, a 1 mm image plane suffices; however, mosaic aperture telescopes with notable wavefront discontinuities require an approximately 10 mm simulation image plane. This necessitates high sampling rates for pupils, posing challenges for conventional methods. Our model overcomes this challenge by leveraging an interpolation technique to align multiwavelength spots on a uniform image plane grid, thus effectively analyzing spot translation and spreading in imaging systems with diffraction limits.
