Abstract

It has been a significant issue in the imaging filed to provide the highest possible resolution of an electro-optical imaging system(E-O imaging system). CCD arrays are inherently undersampled and spatial frequency above Nyquist frequency is distorted so as to create ambiguity and Moire patterns for targets imaged by E-O system.. As to this drawback, a system-design project is introduced and discussed in the paper. It's well known that many image quality metrics are linked to MTF. However, CCDs don't satisfy MTF condition, namely, the shift-invariant property, so MTF synthesis can't appraise the whole system simply by the MTF product of the few sub-system ones in E-O imaging system. Then it is depicted how to solve this problem in the following. Finally the analyses and comparisons of the imaging performance parameters with and without super-resolved technologies are shown.
