Computational Fourier Optics _ a MATLAB tutorial

This book began as a collection of notes and computer examples prepared for a first-year graduate course on Fourier optics. In teaching Fourier optics over a number of years, I found that I developed a better conceptual understanding of the analytic material after setting up examples for the class on the computer. The examples required careful consideration of the sample coordinates, amplitude scaling, practical dimensions, display settings, sampling conditions, and a number of other issues.
