Abstract
Sampling, whether it be spatial or temporal, is a common occurrence. A result of this fact is the need for an anti-aliasing filter, which effectively limits high frequencies and prevents them from folding over and appearing as a low(er) frequency when sampled. In typical imaging sensors, such as optics plus focal plane detector(s), the optical transfer function (OTF) acts as a spatial anti-aliasing filter. However, decreasing this anti-aliasing cutoff frequency (or lowering the curve in general) via the OTF is tantamount to image degradation. On the other hand, the lack of high-frequency attenuation produces aliasing within the image, which is another form of image degradation. In this work, aliasing is quantified, and a method for sampling frequency selection is brought forth.
