[摘要]：The phase of the optical transfer function is advocated as an important tool in the characterization of modern incoherent imaging systems. It is shown that knowledge of the phase transfer function (PTF) can benefit a diverse array of applications involving both traditional and computational imaging systems. Areas of potential benefits are discussed, and three applications are presented, demonstrating the utility of the phase of the complex frequency response in practical scenarios. In traditional imaging systems, the PTF is shown via simulation results to be strongly coupled with odd-order aberrations and hence useful in misalignment detection and correction. In computational imaging systems, experimental results confirm that the PTF can be successfully applied to subpixel shift estimation and wavefront coding characterization tasks.
