Abstract
This paper concerns analysis of imaging sensor called the passive synthetic aperture imaging (PSAI) sensor that is useful for deep-space imaging. The PSAI sensor concept is similar to some other interferometric imaging systems, except that a grating interferometer, which provides improved achromaticity, is used to interfere the light. In this paper we discuss features of the PSAI sensor concept including the optical system and image formation process.
