Aliasing-reduced Fresnel diffraction with scale and shift operations
Numerical simulation of Fresnel diffraction with fast Fourier transform (FFT) is widely used in optics, especially computer holography. Fresnel diffraction with FFT cannot set different sampling rates between source and destination planes, while shifted-Fresnel diffraction can set different rates. However, an aliasing error may be incurred in shifted-Fresnel diffraction in a short propagation distance, and the aliasing conditions have not been investigated. In this paper, we investigate the aliasing conditions of shifted-Fresnel diffraction and improve its properties based on the conditions.
