Computational Fourier Optics: A MATLAB Tutorial - SPIE Press

Master the implementation of Fourier optical theory through this practical MATLAB tutorial. Designed as a hands-on guide, this text teaches readers how to apply analytic methods on a computer to simulate wave optic beam propagations and imaging processes. Whether you are a student looking to program your own basic simulations or a professional engineer or physicist seeking to learn new simulation techniques, this book provides the necessary tools. It serves as an effective resource for self-study or as a curriculum for short courses. The text moves from fundamental concepts to more advanced study, with later chapters and appendices offering specific methods and examples for modeling complex systems. This book is an essential resource for anyone working in applied optics, electronics, or communications engineering who needs to bridge the gap between theoretical Fourier optics and computer-based implementation.
