You are absolutely right.
=c.q]/M .apX72's, 1, Modelling optical system in codev and getting system response functions, using these functions in matlab to build input/output spectrum relationship( such as: if input spectrum distribution is known, matlab does convolution to predict the output,... );
(XwLKkw0n By the way, right now 9.7/9.8 provides diffraction imaging function, probably it can perform the same.
