Abstract
The coherent edge imaging of optical systems apodised with amplitude filters has been studied. Edge ringing can be appreciably mitigated using the chosen amplitude filters. The analytical studies were made for circular aperture. It is found that this type of apodization is more useful in reducing the ringing effect and also there is a perceptible increase in the edge gradient. Hence these amplitude filters are found to be effective in enhancing the resolving power aspects of edge imaging characteristics of optical systems
