  • Abstract
    It is proposed that the number N* , given by N*=4ab [\\int_{0}^{\\infty}T(f) df]^{2} , is equal to the number of picture elements in an image within which the noise-free modulation transfer function T(f) of the image device (display) is uniform and isotropic; a and b are the edge lengths (mm) of a rectangular format, and f is the spatial frequency (cycles/mm). An equation for N* , that applies to nonuniform and anisotropic modulation transfer functions is also given. A picture element transfer efficiency E* is defined as ( N*/N*\´ ), where N*\´ is the number of picture elements transferred to the image (display) by an "ideal" device.
