Delta sequence: A sequence that approaches the delta function when the distribution is narrow. The 2D delta function: The Fourier representation of delta function:
Displacement and phase shift: The Fourier transform of a function displaced in space is the transform of the undisplaced function multiplied by a linear phase factor. Proof:

Considering the case 1) incoherent light, and 2) MT = +1. The flux density arriving at the image point (Y, Z) from dydz is Point-spread function
z Z Ii(Y,Z) I0(y,z) y Y z Z I0(y,z) Ii(Y,Z) y Y Example: • The point-spread functionis the irradiance produced by the system with an input point source. In the diffraction-limited case with no aberration, the point-spread function is the Airy distribution function. • The image is the superposition of the point-spread function, weighted by the source radiant fluxes.
Space invariance: Shifting the object will only cause the shift of the image:
