Abstract

In this paper the authors present a prediction model for the performance of an optoelectronic system by calculating the modulation transfer function (MTF) of the system using the MTF of the components. The paper addresses the imaging process through the optoelectronic equipment, the MTF of the main components and their influence on the total MTF of the optoelectronic system in order to use them in the performance prediction process of an optoelectronic system at the design stage. Also, a series of MTF measurement tests performed by the authors are presented in order to compare the measured MTF values with computed ones..
