摘要
We propose a new analytical edge spread function （ESF） fitting model to measure the modulation transfer function （MTF）.The ESF data obtained from a slanted-edge image are fitted to our model through the non-linear least squares （NLLSQ） method.The differentiation of the ESF yields the line spread function （LSF）,the Fourier transform of which gives the profile of two-dimensional MTF.Compared with the previous methods,the MTF estimate determined by our method conforms more closely to the reference.A practical application of our MTF measurement in degraded image restoration also validates the accuracy of our model.
